We have a massive storm blowing through (talk about snow up high right now!) so what better way to while away a cold/windy/rainy Friday than to test out new recipes...
Freezer Bag Cooking Update: We are down to 15 of these. After that, sadly no more will be produced. The cozy was an amazing success, bummer the fabric is no longer made!

Our newest addition to our line of lightweight insulating cozies. Limited edition reflective metallic sil-nylon. In testings with the regular FBC cozies the new heat reflecting ones retain about 7° to 10° more heat after 15 minutes. ...
One thing this cookbook author has is an extensive collection of outdoor books, which of course contains many outdoor cookbooks! I am always picking up new ones to add to my office’s book shelves! ...
Inspired by a recipe in Lipsmackin’ Vegetarian Backpackin’ and having a bag of freeze dried apricots loitering around I decided to do a take off of a recipe inside.The type of fruit, how much of it and as well how much water – with a different concept of being done – they won’t look “done” bu...
Kirk and I have been paring down on what we will be carrying in the future in the store on Trail Cooking.We have big changes coming up in our family and are getting ready for them by simplifying the business. And to start off the holidays we are having a sale...
We have two recipes for the chilly fall weather in the just out new issue (November/December 2009) of Washington Trails – a hearty chowder and a pasta dish. Look for us on pages 23 and 33. To see one of the recipes open the PDF for “Snowshoe Mount Baker”. ~Sarah
This was a meal I wondered about – would it work, how would it taste? The meal for review was Green Bean Cuisine by Pack Lite Foods. A simply packed 3.5 ounce dry meal that is vegetarian friendly for one. ...
This recipe is another in the “Last minute trip…what do I take to eat?”. It is a hybrid style meal, using your pot to cook the pasta but a bag to mix it up for easy cleanup. Find the recipe for Artichoke and Mozzarella Pasta on Trailcooking. The ...
A reader’s question prompted me to write on the subject of baked ramen. For a short time baked ramen was once again easy to find (it had been popular in the late 1980’s through the early 1990’s) when Nissin brought out a great baked version. To which they canned this year…..sigh! You mi...
Many large grocery stores carry Land O Lakes Cocoa Classics by the packet (look in the hot cocoa/cider aisle) but if you want a deal, head down to your local Costco. They have a 7 flavor pack, with each box containing 6 foil packets...

Due to upcoming events we are going to be putting International Shipping on hiatus for a couple months. This isn’t something we want to do but know that in the coming months this will be a major issue for us. Some of our best customers have been from the UK and Australia and we appreciate you! ...
It is hard to resist the temptation of Recipe Re-Do’s This one comes from a certain magazine in the November 2009 issue that shall remain unnamed. There are two recipes in the section and the “dirtbag” version they slap the name “Pad Thai” on it. To say t...
Kirk and I have added another option to the Book section over at TrailCooking’s Store. We often get multiple orders around the holidays, where our customers are buying copies of our book as gifts to give. ...
Sigh…it happens every year – this year it has come fast. Fall already is slipping into winter quickly in the mountains. A year ago the weather patterns were different – it was dry but bone cold. Walking in the mountains was walking on bare frozen ground. This...
