Having been born and raised in the Pacific Northwest, I am an avid hiker. I love being out in nature, without a care in the world. This trail mix is one of my favorite snacks to throw in my pack and take with me on the trails. I don’t have to stop to eat it, I don’t have to cook it, and it gives me an added boost of energy to keep pushing along the trail.
