The kids and I are looking to get out allot more this year than we have before, and they're all excited for backpacking camping trips. The problem is that we've experienced a very dry winter, so there are already fire restrictions across half the state, meaning campfire cooking like we usually do may not be an option.
There are FOUR of them, ages 7 through 17. That's allot of food, and freezedried meals are too expensive to just boil water for everyone. Normally I would just pack my big aluminum pot, and cook on a fire. I've been looking at getting myself one of the fold up wood stoves, but that's not enough for 5 mouths 3 meals a day.
If anyone has some recommendations to problem solve this, I'm all ears.
