Crafting hearty, nutritious, tasty backcountry meals is an art form that Outdoor Adventures Trip Leaders take very seriously. Shaina Brown shows you how to make one of our signature dishes from a few basic pantry items and spices (a skill that we’ve come to appreciate even more during COVID-19). Want to try your hand at backcountry cooking? Be sure to attend one of our cooking clinics or camping trips in the fall, or rent a stove and cookset from the OA Rental Desk.
