We believe a great trip deserves great food!  We have tested lots of food from different suppliers and have selected what we think are some of the best foods available. Each outfit is custom packed to make sure you get just what you like.  Please be as detailed as you like when using this form. Notes and comments help our packers.
Check the items that you would like to be a part of your menu.  We will put together breakfasts, lunches, dinners (entrée, side dish, and a dessert), and condiments based upon your choices, the size of your group, and availability of selections.
We pack generous portions, so please let us know if your party includes children, light eaters, or if you have special requests (i.e. extra hot chocolate, extra bagels, etc.). We don’t want you to run short of food, but we don’t want you to carry anything extra or end up wasting food.
If you are a vegetarian or have any dietary restrictions let us know, we will do our best to accommodate you.
Please send one menu per group.  We encourage notes and suggestions. We are happy to custom design your menu, just let us know your needs.
To make your trip go smoothly, we would like to go over the food pack when you arrive.  For full outfitting trips, we would appreciate a little more time so we can also go over the gear packs as well.  We want you to feel comfortable about everything before the trip starts.
