Скачать или смотреть Defining "Ultralight" Food for Backpacking and Bug Out Bags

Whether you are thru-hiking, backpacking, or building a bug out bag, this deep dive into the specifics of food density will assist you in maximizing the weight efficiency of the calories you carry. PLUS: MASSIVE downloadable chart of over 1200 hiker foods compared by weight!

PLEASE NOTE: food labels sometimes change. Some of the specific items referenced in the video have had their calories adjusted. The chart has been updated to version 2.0 (and again to version 2.5 with a new sheet for electrolyte supplements)! Over 400 freeze-dried meals are now included, new tools for menu planning and nutrition calculation have been added, and key existing items have been corrected for accuracy.

Watch the video about the update to 2.0:
