What does everyone pack for their trail lunches? My first day of riding mostly consists of water and advil, not sure why?:shrug: But I'm guess it has something to do with everyone being so excited to be finally going.:shots: But by the second day I'm starting to get a little hungrier and our group usually makes a fire for hot dogs, sausage, etc. A warm meal tends to sit better than a frozen sandwich.

I don`t eat much on the trail/riding. I`ll carry water and maybe some jerky. but I like to eat lots for supper when I get down the hill.

We always light a small fire if there is any dead wood to be found. Once in a while use the BBQ at the Renshaw cabin. We don't see many people cooking with a fire and perhaps it is fround upon. If someone can comment on this I would appreciate it.

I like the idea of soup in a thermos. I carry a can of barley soup in an aluminum can for lunch but hopt soup sounds better.

In the mountains it water, a couple of sandwiches, a bunch of power bars (just in case a guy gets caught for a night) and a couple of small apple juice boxes.
I also carry a couple of dried soup mixes, if a guy gets in trouble you just throw snow in your shovel, shovel in the fire and whala...warm hearty soup for supper.

I guess I'd better go out and weld the holes up in my shovel tonight and pack some soup mix cause dang thats a good idea. Would people think I'm a redneck if I ate lunch from my shovel and wasn't stranded? :)
