Five tips. Light food for lighter packing on the hike.
light packing on the hike. Food is a large part of the pack and becomes a larger part the longer the hike or mountain hike becomes. Mountain hiking, hiking or hiking trails and food are good to look into if you want to pack light.
If you hike or cross-country ski in winter, even more energy is used. So the outdoor food is important to save weight on the pack. If you want to pack light or ultralight, there is a lot to pick up. The outdoor food I make is very easy to prepare. The storm kitchen uses fuel, so there are also tips for packing light.
I want it easy on the hike, the mountain hike or the hiking trail. I like to pack ultralight and try to get under three by three.
(3 for 3 simply means putting three kilos as the maximum combined weight for the big three)
The big three are
Sleep = Sleeping system, sleeping pad + sleeping bag.
Protection = the tent
Carry = the backpack.
Then you can try to lighten the rest of the pack, for example through the storm kitchen or al fresco dining.
So in this video I'm going to go through five tips for lighter packing when it comes to outdoor food. I have given up freeze-dried food completely as it contains too little energy and is not good. I mainly go into how you can save fuel for the gas stove through the right preparations at home.
Some good info I found online:
How many calories do you burn on a hike?
A person weighing 70 kg can expect to burn 400 calories per hour during a typical hike. But it is important to note that it can vary slightly from person to person. It depends on various factors such as body weight, age, fitness and walking style.
Another important factor in calorie consumption is the weight of the backpack you carry with you. When you carry a backpack with a lot of stuff, you can expect to burn more calories.
If the backpack weighs, for example, 15 kg, you can count on burning approximately 500 calories per hour for a person weighing 70 kg. This is because it requires more effort from the body to carry a heavy backpack and thus increases energy consumption.
Time: Energy consumed:
30 minutes 250 kcal
1 hour 500 kcal
2 hours 1000 kcal
4 hours 2000 kcal
6 hours 3000 kcal
8 hours 4000 kcal
I also go through a few different methods of how to purify the water, such as water filters or boiling the water. If you have a spirit kitchen or gasoline kitchen or gas kitchen, you will also get tips on how to save fuel.
Later, there will also be videos about light and high-calorie food for the long trip. For example, a winter trip where even more energy is used, it becomes even more important to pack light as food is a large part of the pack.
I will also later release a film about the food I brought with me for five days of mountain hiking in Femundsmarka.
