best foods for long hiking trips?

[samariah]

i want to go on some longer hiking trips, for maybe several days, so what are some good hiking foods that arent too bulky/heavy besides trail mix?

See www.rawhike.com.

Lots of recipes there. It's my friend too. Hiked Continental Divide Trail this way.

There is a gooball I make for such things:

Mix together dates, peanut butter, & shredded coconut in a food processor. It gets nice and thick so you and form it into balls. Wrap in wax paper and your set.
You can also add anything else you think might taste good like other dried fruits, cinnamon, ect.

The Goo Ball sounds RAWsome, although I think it deserves a Better Name. You can also take your Fruits and Salads, just eat them First and early in the Trip.........Have a RAW Time.
