Episode 55: Shaving Food Weight on the Appalachian Trail




Trust The Trail show

Summary: <br> On this episode we explore how to use your body to save weight in packing your food for the first 100 miles of your Appalachian Trail thru-hike. Then we bust the myth on cold soaking your food, reviewing what value it may or may not provide. Does “Cold Soaking” really save weight?<br> What we talk about:<br> <br> * Your body is a piece of gear, don’t forget that<br> * How many calories does it take to burn a pound?<br> * Good Fat…is good<br> * Peanut Butter and Jelly is really good for you<br> * Cold Soaking weight VS Scott’s stove weight<br> <br> Huge thank you!
