I think you covered it all--even a photo of Velveeta Cheese Sauce, my trail favorite! On my own AT thru-hike, I carried 3,000 calories per day (I actually counted the calories on each resupply); that was probably about 1.5 pounds per day. My resupply strategy was to resupply as often as possible so I didn't have to carry so much food. Then in town for resupply, I tried to eat as many additional calories as I could--sometimes hot food, because I also went stoveless like you. (More about the benefits of frequent resupply: I decided before my AT thru-hike even started that I wouldn't finish unless I kept my pack weight as light as possible. On previous long hikes, I'd carried up to 7 days of food. The added weight had a big effect on how I felt after hiking evert day, i.e., I felt worse. Over 2,200 miles, the amount of weight you're carrying on your back REALLY matters.)
evan, how many days of food did you normally carry ? also how many days was the longest on trail between resupply's ? and where was that ? velvetta cheese sauce is the best !
Thanks a million......Ive watched a lot of backpack food videos ....but you're approach is very helpful.....the way you explained the pros and cons of drop boxes vs resupply was excellent....and the taking a laid back approach to it....I loved it ..thank you for great videos.....
Ya I'm 45 and always wanted to do AT starting in Georgia. But I'm glad I found your channel I'm from CT and never knew all the trails in NH and stuff got to check them out
I enjoyed and got a kick out of all the food we would see you eat on the trail. I fully understand how the need to keep yourself going with calories dictates your food needs! Keep up these after trail gems. It's been boring not having you and Nick and Evan to watch almost every night. I love the new additions to your hair!
Love the intro you have created. Great tips on the food. I think if you count calories, they’ll have to ask Evan. Lol. I like the idea of going stove less. You can always hear food on a campfire. I keep forgetting about powdered milk to eat with cereal. Too many great ideas in this video. I’ll have to try the cold soak too.
Great video!! I like the way you explained everything simply and nicely. You got directly to the point and came across friendly and casual. It's a good style for instructional videos (to me, anyway).
I love your personality .. you’re the coolest hiker ever !!! Thanks for the food ideas and breakdowns. I’m 61 and if I had more hair, I definitely would have your look (simply awesome).
Thanks for explaining some things that I had not realized while watching your trip. Our small local grocery store had a sale on peanut butter(Jiff I think) and some of the jars were peanut butter and honey swirled together. I thought of your vlog and had to buy a jar to try the mix. Good Luck
Very good video subject. I liked it so much I just subscribed to your channel and gave you a like. Very good suggestions. I dehydrate my own meals in order to make sure I get a nutritious calories and take care of my high blood pressure by not adding sodium. Sodium is the biggest problem with the freeze dried meals sold at the store. You’re right about the advantages of mailing your own food to yourself in this regard. I think that I would do that always since I have to be very careful with my food intake due to my high blood pressure problem. How often do you eat while hiking, and daily basis? Thank you so much for sharing this video. God bless you.
Great video! I thought my resupply plan was pretty much worked out in my mind. You have given me some things to reconsider. I expect I won't have it all nailed down until I get out on the trail.But I'm sure much of what I imagine about trail life will change as I get further along. Thanks!
Liked your gear review and this video. Style and presentation and info are great. Thanks for your efforts, and, of course, congrats on a successful thruhike!
I think for myself ( 60+ XXL Tall man} A stove will be a must during the first colder months, coffee and at least one hot meal would be needed, My clothes are twice as big and weight twice as much as most folks so Ill need more food and move slower the colder months, ...Upside I love colder temps and the first months heavy work would be great for getting me leaner and stronger for the Summer...Love your videos!
Hey Liz. Love your videos and your attitude. So authentic! wondering if you carried the whole jar of peanut butter and/or nutella? Seems heavy. Thanks again and congratulations on your thru-hike and marriage!
I did carry entire jars! It was definitely heavy! But I ate lots of it so it was worth the weight. If you want more variety in your food and not have to carry entire jars, you can get single serving packets at most grocery stores!
I bought a #10 can of beef, chicken and eggs for my start of my section hike you can add that to the rice sides instead of tuna more calories I had one mail drop with more i liked the way that works
I'm hoping for a better resupply experience next time . I couldn't find a shuttle into town because they were all booked . Everyone was coming to look at the leaves change 😂
Great ideas thank you....I eat some of those things when I am out backpacking.....enjoyed all your videos was very happy when you came back to TH-cam....Thanks for sharing
My boys Schill brothers outdoors ( u tubers ) are planning to assist a friend if there’s in doing the a t nxt yr. they did a portion of Colorado trail in August and loved it. Your videos are very good
Really good job Liz. Im a stove guy, but when its 80-90 degrees at dinner time, your cold meal ideas might just work. Thanks for that. Hello to Luke from Kamper also.
Liz. I saw a video about the guy who did the AT in record time. Said it only rained 4 days. I thought of you guys with all the rain. He really lucked out
Liz great video very informative. To do the entire AT with no experience!! Wow how far into the trek were you before you felt comfortable on your own? i watched I think it was Evans video were the three of you met up. Congrats on the marriage. Did you wing it at first or did you get some advise from the other hikers from the begining of the trip? Thanks bikerbob
Not to detract from the content, it was great and very informative, but your video producing skills are outstanding, very professional....wondering what software you are using....very organized, clear, and creative....very impressed, keep em coming....
Hi Handstand, Love your videos, very helpful! Question...How did you manage the packaging after consuming the food? I'm sure trash would attract bears?
Hey Liz. What do you do with leftover food or supplies if you're not hiking with a friend to share it with? For example a container of cereal and oatmeal. Do you try to buy the lowest serving size possible? Also, do you buy a regular size tube of toothpaste or the mini travel size? Thanks!
I carried a mini toothpaste and when it came to food, you have to try to find smaller servings for variety (easy at gas stations, but more expensive) or if you had to buy larger sizes then you’re stuck eating the same thing the whole resupply. Or throw leftovers in a hiker box for others to use! For example I bought ziplocks a lottttt and always left extras in hiker boxes! And then yes, if you want to coordinate with someone else and share, then that works too, but I rarely did that. Evan and I had very different ideas about food on the trail hahah
@@LizKidder Thanks Liz for the reply and for all the awesome content. I learned so much... makes me more and more excited to get out there and hike. ❤🌲❤🌳❤🌵
I didn’t carry a stove so I personally don’t have a lot of experience with freeze dried food- but I think the general consensus is that mountain house (or similar) are really expensive and unnecessary when you can get pasta/rice sides at the grocery stores for cheap!
Liz: My question for you is did you work out before your AT adventure? If so much? What did you do to get ready for the trail? Love all your volgs. This video gave me a lot of food for thought. The Wolfpack Kim, Dam and Leo Can any one do it without training? Thanks for your help...
Might do a video on this! Did a lot of dayhiking the season before, did physical therapy on my knee over the winter, and then my usual fitness routines including yoga and circus arts! I would suggest at least doing a fair amount of hiking before you go, if possible!
That's a bunch of great ideas. How long can perishables last safely? Say I have cream cheese in 80* weather. How long could that realistically last? Or like a gas station sandwich. That's not gonna be good by tomorrow, is it?
Although I didnt carry perishable foods in the dead of summer, I definitely saw plenty of other people! So cheeses tend to get kind of slimy- but is still fine to eat I guess. I’d say I’d try to eat up the cheese within 2-3 Days tops though. As for sandwiches/cold cuts- I definitely saw someone pack that out for a few days but I personally wouldn’t recommend that- I’d eat anything like that within 12-24 hours. But that’s just my guess I’m not like a professional in the perishable food industry 😂 🤷🏼♀️
sputtyduke ...watch out for mayonnaise in hot weather, that is if you’ve brought a sandwich or sub from town. It goes bad really quickly in hot weather. Oh man, I got so sick from that once!
As soon as I am out of FaceBook Prison, Friday 26 Oct, I am going to post this Video on my PCT 2019, 2020 y 2021 FaceBook pages. • You ever try mashing two or three loaves of whole wheat bread into one? Beau-coup air in a loaf of bread As long as it stays wrapped it very good and edible even for 3 or 4 days. Just like you leave it wrapped on top of the refrigerator or somewhere around the house. • Oye Liz, another great video. Always learning -- thanks for taking the time and effort to do these ! Greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much for this video. I loved all the ideas, and I have a really strict diet (high protein). Did you use a special bottle for your tea or did you just toss that into your regular water bottle?
I have a question that you partially covered under stove or stoveless. TL,DR: Wet or Dry food? (Or an inevitable combination?) - If I take dehydrated food, I'd still need to carry extra water for the later rehydration. Kinda' negates the weight saving! - If I take hydrated foods, it would be easier (without stove) and would save extra water weight. My feeling says that if, wherever I hike, there is ample water resupply possibilities. Then dry food seems logical + stove. (Or cold soak) If water is less frequent, then wet food without stove. Any ideas from any readers welcome!
I eat a keto diet in my life and try to eat that way on the trail to my best abilities. I am all about the fat. I find carbs are very empty and do not pack enough calories per oz. I try to only carry four days of food. Any more than that and I really slow down and my body revolts. I must add I travel with a dog and I am often carrying a lot of her food too. I always observe what others are eating and take tips from them. I used to worry about not having enough food but now I am more concerned with having to much. When in town I eat all the time. Again as much fat as I can find. It is strange what your body starts to crave. Many people don’t use a stove but for me it’s not an option. Stove and hot coffee and food all the way. I am retired and I ate cold foot for over 35 years. I now rarely eat anything cold. Thanks for your experience.
Did you lose weight - gain weight? What kind of cravings did you have? What did you crave the most? Did you have caffeine sources other than coffee? Did you repack anything before hitting the trail to cut down on weight or trash? Did anything other than pizza and ice cream make you wish you hadn’t eaten it? What disturbed your system the most, causing toilet problems? How much water did you consume daily? And, when in weather situations that might make you susceptible to hypothermia, were you compelled to overcome it with high calorie food? Thanks for any answers.
The most surprising thing for me is that you go mostly vegetarian on the trail, if not totally, and yet you love a burger or steak when in town? So why no meat on the trail? Its something I kept noticing. Anyway, again, love your videos, I've been a fan since day one and thanks again for sharing your journey with us! I always wish you all the best that life has to offer!
Hey! So I did eat a lot of beef jerky/beef sticks/etc while on the trail, and other than that, there aren’t many other “meat” type foods that keep on the trail, if you’re stoveless. I was a vegetarian for many years earlier in my life and am now happy eating vegetarian food or otherwise! :)
The more you avoid junk food the better you finish the trail. Too much sugar and void calories anihilates your inmunnity system and your body. Hike on!!!

Over 2,200 miles, the amount of weight you're carrying on your back REALLY matters.)
I love that we were both stoveless and that we were totally on the same page with resupplies! Best hiking partner ever!
Evan, I knew you were a master tarp maker but I did not know you were also an ultra-light-weightier.
Liz Kidder - and...best hiking team ever!
evan, how many days of food did you normally carry ? also how many days was the longest on trail between resupply's ? and where was that ? velvetta cheese sauce is the best !

Ya I'm 45 and always wanted to do AT starting in Georgia. But I'm glad I found your channel I'm from CT and never knew all the trails in NH and stuff got to check them out
One thing I carried a lot of was various types of Jerry for a quick soup worked out well for a meal
Thinks, Liz, for the food lowdown. I was wondering about that.
Great vid! Your peanut butter honey fruit wraps always looked so good when you showed them on the trail!

Thank you, I appreciate you saying that!
Love your breakfast menu. I am a section hiker and have learned a lot from the videos I have viewed. Thanks again.
Thanks for watching!!
Love all of your videos! Can you please do a video on cost and how much one can expect to spend while hiking the AT? Thanks for all the info!
Great idea!
Great information. I really enjoy your videos. I hope I can do a long trail one day.
I love your personality .. you’re the coolest hiker ever !!! Thanks for the food ideas and breakdowns. I’m 61 and if I had more hair, I definitely would have your look (simply awesome).
Aw thank you! 🙏🏻
Another super good video. Thanks! Looking forward to your next one already.
Very well done video. I say this is one of the better posts on re-supply.
Thank you for this! Loads of great info and you have given me some ideas on eats on the trail.

Great job on the food video. Thanks for the info. Your gear video was also great info. Keep it up.
Thank you!
I got in to dehydrating my meals in advance white and filling. But I never done anything over 5 days either. I could see the suck factor lol
I'm hoping for a better resupply experience next time . I couldn't find a shuttle into town because they were all booked . Everyone was coming to look at the leaves change 😂

Good informative video Liz, thank you for education.

Another excellent video. Thank you.
Great video, sorry I missed your thru-hike this year, I did follow other hikers. Any plans for hiking PCT or CDT?
Maybe someday but not immediate plans to!
Hi Handstand, Love your videos, very helpful! Question...How did you manage the packaging after consuming the food? I'm sure trash would attract bears?
I alway keep my trash in a plastic bag and store it in my bear bag. So not only am I hanging my food but also my trash.

Exactly! On the AT there is usually plenty of water options near campsites so dehydrated food is lighter weight!
Any thoughts on packing MREs?
Never really looked into it tbh, I like simplicity and a clean trash bag....
MREs are heavy
Mre are junk. Full of soy and sugar and zero fiber.
🙏🏻

Interesting details
cool thank you. what was the average distance you walked? and that cup container does it seal very well?
The average distance I walked? 2,190 miles... 15-20 miles a day about. The seal on the cup was never an issue!

How tall are you?
Cold soaking lol
Dont give up your coffee...Starbucks Instant Via Columbia ... no stove required :-)
I think y'alls strategy works best, it gives you more flexibility to take a Zero day and such.
You looked the same at the beginning you looked at the end...started in shape, ended in shape...it looked easy for you
Some people use a scale to measure food. Granted they probably don't bring the scale with them
Anyone eat traditional pemmican?
Good one.
I was kinda wanting to hear POST A.T. food ideas????????
Like food after the trail? Haha I’m not sure why that would be helpful, sorry if the title was confusing- I changed it!
Just ship Nutella and your good to go. LOL
I’m too poor for all this supply business
oops I watched this , The first 50 seconds are all spoilers !!!!!
Woops!

I gave up eating like this, I need real food.
The more you avoid junk food the better you finish the trail. Too much sugar and void calories anihilates your inmunnity system and your body.
Hike on!!!
Most of this isnt food. Lmao
Eating 3-5k calories and being malnourished and nutrient deficient. 😂😂😂
