It’s road-trip, car-camping, paddling and hiking time, everyone! Time to rev up the snacks. A big fat breakfast cookie will fuel you through those early mornings on Atlin Lake when you wake at 7, pack up camp and paddle halfway to your destination before stopping for coffee and a real breakfast in a sheltered cove.
And you know those sesame snacks that come in packs of four, sold at checkout counters in gas stations across the country? You can make them. They’re easy. Add in sunflower seeds, peanuts, whatever you like; just make sure the bulk of your seeds are sesame.
Bring on the snacks, bring on summer!
