Mona, AKA Woodswoman, led her first trip to the BWCA in August of 1983. At that time, she was recent college graduate with limited resources and made do with gear and equipment that was available. Inspired by the peace, beauty, adventure, and challenge of the BWCA, she vowed to return. And she did. In 2000 she established a small outfitting business, MSB Wilderness Adventures, which is focused on introducing the BWCA to adventurous souls who seek a wilderness experience but want a little extra guidance. In 2024 she led her 66th BWCA trip.

Be bold. Be safe. You can dehydrate anything. However, should you? Advanced dehydration techniques will be shared including video clips of dehydrating eggs, sour cream, and guacamole. Preservation of these items is critical. Develop confidence as you dehydrate and apply methods to ward of the five enemies that impact the shelf life of your food. Time allotted for Q & A at the end of the presentation.

Dehydrating food is an ancient, effective, and nutritious way of preserving food. However, it can be a bit intimidating if you have never done it before or had unsuccessful attempts. Learn about different methods of dehydrating, easy items to dehydrate, BWCA trip menus using dehydrated food, preserving the food, and an overview of different dehydrators. Time allotted for Q & A at the end of the presentation.
