About These Meal Packages
Whittaker Mountaineering's meal packages provide the recommended ratio of 15% protein, 65% carbohydrate, and 20% fat. These foods are generally lightweight, tasty and travel well in a pack. Calorie content per meal package ranges from 2,800 to 4,000, depending on if it's a training/school day or summit climb day.

Nutritionist
- Climbing Mt Rainier burns about 8000-11,000 calories, depending on your sex, size and fitness level. Prior training will help your body utilize stored calories as a supplement to what you're eating. This is good! It's not unusual to have a low appetite during the climb itself. Eating small amounts of foods high in carbohydrates and drinking fluids on a set schedule provides glucose to your hard working muscles. Eating small amounts frequently also may reduce the chance of an upset stomach.
