[pct-l] Fw: Titanium backpacker stoves

[Bill Cathey]

I have no snow-camping experience, but am hoping to learn. Why is the stove that is good for boiling water not the best for melting snow? Is being able to simmer for some reason better for melting snow? I know you're supposed to make sure there's a little water in the pot before melting snow. Thanks.

If you are only looking to boil water in the system and want a lightweight option then the Sol Titanium is a great model for that purpose, if you are looking to maybe cook noodles, beans or need to melt snow from time to time you would go with the Sol Aluminum model as it is more versatile in its options and is still lightweight.
