This is a good choice.  I made several loaves of this for Toney and his 
friend when they were getting ready for their Mt Hood expedition, and again 
when they climbed Mt Whitney. (this means even *you* could make it, Skeeter, 
'cause Betty Crocker I'm not). ;-)  It is full of all sorts of good things 
and very nutricious.  The only problem with Logan Bread is the weight.  It is 
very dense, and one loaf weighs a lot.  That didn't bother them too much, as 
they were also packing climbing gear, and I think they are part mule.  But 
for plain ole backpacking, it's weight might outweigh (no pun intended) the 
benefits.  Maybe if you didn't take the whole loaf :-)
