I need your advice.  I am going on a ten day backpacking trip in the wilderness of New Mexico next summer and I'd like to stay paleo.   I'm not going to worry about low carb at this point, though that'd be cool too.  We will be in bear territory.

The first thing most of you are going to say is pemmican.  Great idea, but I don't believe any of the pemmican suppliers I've used actually make shelf-stable pemmican.  It goes bad after about a week without refrigeration.  Make my own?  Is is going to be so smelly that it attracts bears, even up in a bear bag?

Dried fruit, larabars, small pouches of almond butter.

What else?

Thanks in advance.  I'm very excited about the trip!
