This was a lunch recipe I learned this summer from one of the outfitters I worked for. Customers really liked it. I like a little extra spice, so it is also good with rajas chilies and some of the juice tossed in. Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top works too!

After nine months of boating in the western United States, Mexico, and Guatemala my funds have dried up, so it’s time to go back to work. I am heading out to Colorado to guide for Adventure Bound. This means I will be living in my “second home” once again.  As I […]

My Second Home





Today I found myself doing a river tally for the year 2011; from May of 2011 to today I have rafted 33 rivers, most of which were multi-day expeditions. That is a lot for one year! Fourteen rivers were in the USA and the rest were in Mexico. The most exciting part is that many of  […]

I am always looking for ways to make camp recipes as healthy as possible. I have just discovered a way to improve some recipes and wanted to pass the information onto you. A few of the recipes in my cookbook “Camp Cooking WITHOUT Coolers” contain shortening. Shortening works very well in the […]

cellophane wrapped English cucumber
  The “English” cucumber lasts for a very long time without refrigeration. These cucumbers taste better than the traditional cucumber. No need to peel these thin skinned vegetables. Easily find them in the grocery store by looking for the cellophane/plastic wrapped cucumbers. Make sure it has the “English” cucumber label. Also, before buying check them […]
