I'm thinking about taking a long trip through the woods/mountains for about 150 miles, so I'm thinking about 3-4 weeks.

Is hunting my only option for food? I would need something like 100k calories worth of food total at 3k cals per day, so it seems it wouldn't be possible to carry that much.

What's the best way to hunt for food in a situation like that. Killing a deer/elk is a waste because I'd eat 1 lb of it and then continue my hike and waste the rest. Fishing seems good, but I don't think I can fish 3k cals a day.

I hope you get lost and die.

Also, what is >>>/out/
>>
>>31537270
I'd learn trapping if I were you. Birds, small mammals, bugs and fish (look up primitive fish trap in particular)
>>
fishing takes a while, but I know salmon is good

rabbit and squirrels both are small and easy enough to catch, but I don't like the taste of squirrel and there aren't many rabbits where I live. birds are always a good option too.
>>
>>31537270
Rabbit starvation.

If all you eat is wild game you will get protein poisoning and die because wild game doesnt contain enough fats, carbs, or calories.
>>
I don't know where you live, but you aren't going to be able to make that.

I did a course with a 5 day survival phase and we just got hungry as fuck despite spending every reasonable moment trying to hunt and not have to walk anywhere like you have to. To be fair we only had one knife between seven of us, so if you bring a gun it will be a lot easier.

Prepping and cooking game takes a while too.

Also, this: >>31537386
You need carbohydrates.

Basically only an issue if you don't Eat the bones and organs.

Olympic peninsula, Washington state. I can bring a gun, but I think the park doesn't allow hunting and about half of the trip will be through the park (it does allow fishing).

>>31537356
Set a trap before sleeping, then have food when I wake up? Could work. Will need to see if trapping equipment is light enough to carry.

Good to know.

Would I die if I just ate 50 lbs of clif bars and took a multivitamin every day for the trip?
>>
>>31537675
I think you would die if you ate 50lbs of any food during a 24 hour period. In all seriousness though, Clif bar and multivitamin combo is nutritionally deficient; Clif bars are mainly sugars and carbohydrates, and I'm suspicious of any claims made by multi-vitamins (as a multi-vitamin is a SUPPLEMENT). You'll probably be fine for maybe a week or two, but after that some nutritional deficiencies may start to show themselves.

>>31537270
your gonna die. GL trying to catch that much food a day. Have shit mailed or set up to you like on the AT

Have you done weekend trips, week long drips with extended durations without the travel aspect ?

What outdoor experience do you have?

Have you experience trapping, stalking, hunting and foraging?

What part of the world will you be operating in?

What is your body composition?

This is surely bait, you need a few thousand callories if you will be working in distressing conditions, more if you will be exerting yourself continuously, even more if you expect scarcity to be a problem.

You are going to die.

eat it ahead of time.

Hunger won't kill you, literally just eat 30 burgers (read: patties) a week for a month and take a dozen emergency ration bars with you.

Gosh by golly, I sure do wish I had 0% body fat...

Consider packing MREs, dry food, canned food, whatever. You don't seem like you are ready.
>>
>>31537270
The amount of time you'd spend gathering and hunting for food would leave you with no time whatsoever to continue your hike.
Even more so since you seem to have no experience in doing so (or you wouldn't be asking).
