hiking recipes
I am looking at my hiking recipes and found an oldie but goodie, grog cakes or oatmeal pancakes. The recipe calls for 1/2 cup powdered milk.

My school is doing a fitness challenge by keeping track of how many steps we take during the day. My problem is yesterday I hiked about 4 miles carrying about 30 lbs of gear. Does anybody know how many extra steps that would be worth if any? I have tried looking on the web, but no clear answers yet. Thanks.
