[pct-l] About: How much food did you eat.

You might also consider boosting both the flavor and calories of your
meals with freeze dried butter or sour cream. Both of the come in at
over 200 calories per ounce and there is no oil mess.

Thanks for all your input,
 
The Consensus seems to be:
1. You will need about 2LB on the trip (some say up to 3 LB for the
Sierras) 2. Olive oil is a good supplement with a good calorie/pound
ratio. 3. You probably can't carry enough weight anyway, so plan on
eating well when you  
    get to Civilization..
4. You could eat better on shorter trips to make up deficit on longer
ones. 5. Just go man, you can't plan it all out. Thats part of the
adventure (This is course is a 
    rough paraphrase)....
 
Thank you all for your input. Guess I will just have to find out in
2005! only 16 months left. -Mt Goat-
