Laurie Ann is an author, designer and photographer.
A few of her recipes have been featured in Backpacker Magazine, Ottawa
Outdoors, The Calgary Herald, Lipsmackin' Vegetarian Backpackin' and
The Joy of Backpacking.
Laurie's own cookbook, A
Fork in the Trail, was released by Wilderness Press in January
2008 and she is currently working on her second book. Laurie also donates
her time and design skills to several non-profit wilderness preservation
and charitable organizations.
"I'm an avid backpacker,
canoeist, wilderness cook and the mother of a 7 year old boy, Tobias,
who is my toughest critic when it comes to backcountry food. I love
to cook and to experiment with recipes, new ingredients and techniques.
I also love the challenge of cooking in the wilderness. I've even
been known to make baked brie in pastry on a backpacking trip, so
one could safely say I am obsessed with backcountry cooking. I prefer
to look at it as my passion though.
It is this passion along with
my love of teaching others about trail food that brought about the
idea to create this site."
- Laurie Ann
Bryan is a service and applications engineer and in
his spare time he is a photographer and gear reviewer.
"Some have said that I am as obsessed with backpacking
gear as Laurie is with cooking in the backcountry. There could be
some truth in that. Perhaps this is why I do so much of the gear testing
for Wilderness Cooking and Outdoor Adventure Canada. My technical
background is helpful when putting backcountry kitchen gear through
the rigors.
It seems that I have also become the official trail
food taste tester around this place. It's a tough job but someone
has to do it!"
- Bryan
The March family lives in Brantford,
Ontario, Canada near the Grand River and the Trans-Canada Trail.
