What to expect from Class 2

As outdoor enthusiasts, we know that camping and outdoor recreation go hand in hand. However, one of the biggest challenges for many people, especially beginners, is figuring out how to cook while camping. In this class you will learn what style of camp cooking fits your needs in a drop in and station based class. We will chat types of gear is available, average price ranges for new and used gear, and share recipe cards for you to try on your next adventure! 
 
Does the idea of cooking on the trail already have your mouth watering? We will be preparing Trailtopia meals for you to sample while learning camp cooking strategies. Trailtopia meals will also be available for purchase in store.
