I decided to do something different for this week’s episode profiling the 41-km Saguenay Fjord Trail and Jacques-Cartier National Park, which are both in Quebec.
Earlier this month, I took a field recorder with me on a 2,200-km road trip to the fjord and back and recorded some dispatches from the trail as I hiked it. I even managed to interview some fellow hikers one rainy evening as we huddled together in a three-walled shelter.
I’ll start this episode with some background about the parks and the trip, and then roll the dispatches. If you listen to this episode and have any feedback, I’d love to hear it. If people like this format, I can already think of some long trails I’d like to cover the same way in the not to distant future. Next time, I'll put a foam windscreen on my field recorder....
As promised, here are the recipes I mentioned in the episode:
Meg’s vegetarian trail burrito:
Ingredients:
Whole wheat tortillas
Textured vegetable protein
Taco seasoning packet (To taste. You can always add more if you decide there’s not enough)
Dehydrated tomato, red pepper, black beans, salsa, cilantro and green onion (the last two you can find at most bulk food stores) and/or whatever other veggies you want
Cheddar cheese (I use individual single serving packets but choose your own adventure)
BONUS: If you can get your hands on some crunchy fried onion salad toppers like the ones French’s makes, it’s a real clutch move to sprinkle those on top at the end)
Method:
I just combine everything but the tortillas, cheese and fried onions in my pot or freezer bag and add boiling water to it. Usually just enough water to cover all the ingredients. Let it sit for a few minutes to rehydrate, cheese up into little pieces and throw that in. Stir, scoop out onto tortillas, sprinkle friend onions on top and wrap that baby up.
Trail tuna salad wraps:
Ingredients:
Tuna packet or can
2 mayo and 1-2 mustard packets (fast food restaurant-style)
Cheese
Flower tortilla
Method:
Mix everything together and slap it onto tortilla
