Description: Since Sierra Club Books published the first edition of this book in 1976, there has been a revolution in backcountry cooking. Today's lightweight stoves and kitchen tools make cooking in the wild easier than ever before; with the ubiquitous availability of fast-cooking natural foods, the modern adventurer has tasty alternatives to expensive pre-packaged meals. This book brings together the expertise of culinary professionals and the wilderness knowledge of a former backcountry guide to provide more than 180 trail-tested recipes for natural, easy-to-prepare meals for backpacking, hiking, and camping.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 272-275) and index.
