Hikers can learn how to use proper dehydration techniques to make their own trail and backpacking foods at the monthly meeting of the Nantahala Hiking Club, set for 7 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 9, at the Macon County Public Library.

Participants will learn to build up a shelf-stable food supply unaffected by power outages; how to make trail food; and basic dehydration techniques. The demonstration will focus on fruits, vegetables, meats, dairy products, ready-mixes, one-pot-meals, storage, various dehydrators and resources.
