It depends on the time and place. If you are going backpacking for a longer period of time, it's probably not a good idea. Or if you are backpacking somewhere hot that's probably not a good idea too.

What frozen food can you take walking?

If you are going backpacking, I would not advise frozen foods unless you were hiking in the winter. Even then I would not advise it. Frozen foods are very heavy and when they thaw, they may leak onto your other gear and may spoil. Freeze dried foods are the best for backpacking because they are lighter and take up less space. If you are just going wallking then you will want lightweight foods that offer you energy. Snacks and such.

What foods are best for camping?

Good foods for camping are foods that will not spoil on your trip (if you are camping with a cooler, this includes pretty much anything you eat at home) and foods that are easy to cook at your campsite. If you plan to cook over a fire or a simple backpacking style stove the best foods are foods that can be cooked on a grill, on a stick or in a packet of foil like hot dogs and other meat, marshmallows, baking potatoes, corn and foods that can be boiled like noodles, soups, corn, and veggies. Canned foods that just need to be heated up are good for people who are uncomfortable with cooking in a primitive kitchen. Other good camping foods are foods that don't need to be cooked at all like sandwiches, crackers, chips, and fruit. That said, you really can eat whatever you want when you go camping: the deliciousness of your camping food is restricted only by your own creativity and ability to cook in a primitive kitchen. For a backpacking trip the best foods are non-perishable foods that are lightweight, high in nutrients/calories and use a minimal amount of fuel to prepare. Foods like nuts, dried fruits, beef jerky, powdered soups, pasta, couscous, parboiled rice, and dried veggies. There is advice and good recipes for backpacking at the website in related links. The website is about hiking the Wonderland trail around Mt. Rainier but the meal planning advice works for any backpacking trip.

The GP100 is a great revolver, but if you're backpacking in Alaska - where you could be subject to encountering bear - you would definitely much rather have the .454 Casull.
