[pct-l] jetboil trials, slogging on through

[David Ellzey]

Well, if you are going to dive deep into gourmet lightweight (not ultra) backpack food preparation, you will need one of these: http://www.bakepacker.com/bakul.html

I originally got one to bake fish on flypacking trips but I have to admit carrying it just to make cornbread and cake on a 10 day PCT hike from Echo Lake to Virginia Lakes. I personally would not do it again as we used the JetBoil group pot and I missed the PCS cup. Carrying both seems sort of absurd. Yes, I realize the irony of that statement coming from a guy who baked cornbread on a 160 mile section hike.

what, NO FRESH BAKED CROISSANTS ?
I'm trying out more goodies on my jet boil tonight. the helios guide set.
mountain house lasagna with meat sauce, mountain house  blue berry crumble, and
a sourdough Baguette w/ virgin olive oil from trader joes.
and of course french pressed Italian roasted coffee with cacao powder, and the
83 percent dark chocolate bars.
research is a bitch you know.........but I'm pressing on with this burden.

wish me luck......aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh
