Whether you are headed into the mountains for a weeekend's hiking or around The Horn in a sailing boat, low-volume, lightweight food is a universal need of those who travel off the beaten track. But eating well in the wilds does not have to mean overpriced and often unpalatable prepackaged "trail food". This book is a complete guide to drying your own food for the outdoor life, including instructions for building a dehydrator, coverage of all aspects of food preparation, packing for wilderness living and a field-tested collection of recipes which emphasize fresh, healthy, economical and delicious foods.
