In Backpacking meals are an important of your trail experience. There are as many ways to go about planning and preparing meals as there are trails.
As promised in the podcast here are some of the resources mentioned and gear that we use as well as meal ideas and items that I typically eat on the trail.

Have a Great Scouting Day!
Great show, I'll be trying some of those food ideas out for sure.I had someone spamming my blog a month or so ago too – bummer but it happens.Keep up the good work!
Our locally available stove is the Pocket Rocket. Very good for backpacking. Almost every Scout in my troop has one (as do the adults). The JetBoil is nice but it's way too expensive for most Scouts.
