Just fold the open end tightly and keep it out of direct sun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this bar lighter than traditional energy gels for trail running?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is more calorie-dense per ounce than a gel, which is exactly what runners on ultra efforts want for efficient fuel. You can also break it into smaller bites and eat it over several aid stations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use this bar as a pre-climb meal before a long multi-pitch route?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Climbers commonly eat one 60-90 minutes before a long approach or big wall day because the macro balance sustains energy without the bloating that high-sugar snacks can cause.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does CLIF BAR compare to a homemade trail mix for hiking?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike loose trail mix, CLIF BAR is pre-portioned, won't spill in your pack, and delivers a precise macro balance designed for sustained energy. It also travels better at altitude and in wet weather.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs this bar a better cycling snack than a banana?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth work, but CLIF BAR offers protein, fat and carbs together, plus caffeine, in a wrapper that won't bruise or bruise your jersey pocket. Many cyclists alternate between the two depending on ride length.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does it compare to chews or gels for trail running?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bar provides more complete nutrition than chews or gels and is easier on the gut during long moderate efforts. For very high-intensity racing, you may still prefer quick carbs, but for long training runs the bar is excellent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eI'm worried about litter on the trail - is the wrapper easy to pack out?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe wrapper is small, lightweight and can be folded into itself and stashed in a trash pocket or zip bag.

Many winter hikers tuck it inside a jacket pocket for ten minutes to soften it before biting in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs the caffeine too strong for an early-morning easy hike?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt depends on your caffeine sensitivity, but for most people a single bar mid-morning on a long hike is a comfortable amount. Save it for the second half of the day if you want to sleep well at camp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow should I store CLIF BARs to keep them fresh?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStore them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight - a pantry, desk drawer or gym bag works perfectly.
