Beautiful daughter! The only thing I would add to the trail mix would be coconut flakes.

I love adding pieces of dried apple to my trail mix!

Great post, Merrill! Beautiful pics of Clara. Your camping trip w/your sister sounded like a blast. Trail mix looks delish, but my fav is your friend's Sara's granola bars. Made them again for a hike last week. Everyone wanted the recipe.

Great for people (like me) who like to hike without necessarily camping; for the longer day hikes we take, trail mix is essential. I prefer it over the next-best-alternative, Larabars, as it is not so sweet. The beauty of this is that you can control the sweetness so easily. I usually include pepitas and sunflower seeds, too. Also, for hiking it helps not to use too many salted nuts/seeds, as they tend to make one thirsty -- not a condition one wants on a strenuous or long-distance hike (the best kind). ;o) P.S. Also, I find trail mix to be the perfect snack when in negotiations all day!

I always eat the chocolate out first, too! But this trail mix looks well-balanced enough that I might not.

Clara is gorgeous! Love her happy smile in the first picture.
Can't believe I haven't thought of making trail mix. Will be making this for my 2.5 yr old. Thanks!
