[QUOTE="brant89, post: 2956596, member: 49553"] I learn something new every trip. As mentioned previously, 100 calories per ounce is my general rule of thumb, and I also shoot for 2000-2500 per day. Uncrustables and freeze dried tortellini are great cheap options that fit this requirement. Another thing to consider that was a big concern for us this fall was the availability of water. You can’t make oatmeal or pasta without it, so if water is scarce or unknown where you are going make sure you plan your food accordingly. As far as hydration bladders in cold weather, sleeping with your water at night is a must. An easy way to keep your hose from freezing while you hike is to blow the water back into the bladder so the hose is empty. Just don’t blow too hard or it turns your hydration hose into a garden hose. [/QUOTE]
