Your thoughts and experiences??


For a one night trip it might not matter that much. Take what you enjoy to eat. We go into places that lack water sources so it doesn’t make sense to dehydrate everything unless it’s for food preservation. It also depends on how far you are hauling that pack. If it’s not too far I see no reason not to take your favorite foods.
