Low Carb diet in the Back Country?

[John Scifres]

Nuts, jerky and tuna/salmon pouches for me.  I also add olive oil, mainly cause I love the stuff  

But my diet in the mountains is essentially the same as my diet at home.  I really think people should match their regular diets and maybe adjust calorie intake if their activitiy is increased.

Thanks for all the feedback. We're packing in for this hunt. My last hunt in UT was truck camping and we ate like kings. Problem was I was the joke of the camp. Had the shovel in my hands almost as much as the bow which made for some uncomfortable hiking! I think you can see the holes I dug all over Ashley national forest on google earth!

I am packing 163,000 calories cleverly hidden in subcutaneous reserves. Hopefully I'll be able to live off these if I don't consume 3000 calories in snickers per day.

The key thing to remember is everybody is unique and to listen to your own body. I have been on a "low carb" diet for years now because of my lifestyle (powerlifting, strongman competitions and wrestling) and I feel great, but I can tell when something is out of whack and adjust my caloric intake as such.
Bottom-line is try to stay healthy but enjoy your hunt, if that means the occasional snickers then so be it, you can lose weight once you get back home.
