Trail Correspondents S3 Episode #9 | The Thru-Hiker’s Diet
What does one eat on a backpacking trip? It may seem like a simple question with an equally simple answer. But dig a bit beneath the surface and, you’ll quickly learn there’s more nuance than you might originally think. Not only do we get a taste of what goes into a day’s menu for our hiker trash, but we also learn how their tastes have evolved while on trail, the much-anticipated Hiker Hunger- the point at which a trekker’s stomach evolves into a bottomless pit, and general advice for how they go about thinking about their diets overall.
