Frankie spends most of the year either in the mountains producing amazing adventure stories or planning and packing for the next adventure.

Frankie emphasizes the value of high-quality ingredients and the satisfaction of knowing where your food comes from. We also discuss the challenges of overpacking and the balance between simplicity and variety in meal planning. In this conversation, we discuss our experiences with backcountry meals and the importance of maintaining a healthy gut while on outdoor adventures. We share their go-to meals and snacks, including nuts, dried fruit, and soups. The conversation concludes with a discussion on meal planning, organization for extended trips, and our upcoming hunting adventures.
