..... I would not trust shellfish on the trail. even fresh and refridgerated, its notorious for causing food poisoning if not well prepared.

Probably canned crab

Fresh crab should be safe. Set up by a river, set the crab pots, climb the heights to see the sights then come back and boil some lucky crabs. Doesn't nessesarily work if your going in a straight line but if you're hiking ridge lines then should be ok.

There is actually canned crab that isn't shelf-stable, though the weather will dictate what you can get away with.

First dinner perishables I pack with a frozen mylar pouch like capri-sun, and then in mylar (old potato chip bag) or bubblewrap or both.
