I'm stoveless, and I don't even bother to soak anything. I just mix up a batch of nuts, raisins, cranberries, dried-anything, oats, dark chocolate chips pumpkin seeds...whatever I feel like - and hit the road. I big ziplock bag of my chow goes a long way. With the exception of the chocolate chips, its very Paleo. Lots of nutrient density in the nuts, and vitamins and fiber in the fruits and berries. Top this off with some quality beef jerky or biltong (not that crap at the supermarket checkouts), and you've got some serious sustenance. When I eat this way I think of Ötzi.
