Eating out on a trip costs more than the campsite. Simple camp meals keep costs low.
Ideas
- Prep at home: chop vegetables, mix pancake batter, cook chili
- One-pot meals: pasta, chili, rice and beans
- Foil-packet dinners over coals
- Oatmeal and fruit for breakfast
- Freeze water bottles to use as ice
Store food safely
Follow the park's food storage rules, especially in bear country.
