[pct-l] Stoves, stoves and more stoves....

[Diane Soini of Santa Barbara Hikes]

Go to http://zenstoves.net/. You can learn about how these stoves  
work, drawbacks, etc so you can better make an informed decision. You  
can also learn how to make your own.

Best commercial stove I have used is the caldera cone system.

The stove I used on my hikes was a crappy homemade stove like this  
one: http://zenstoves.net/ChimneyStove.htm (Mini Zen Chimney/ 
Sideburner Stove)

I just set the pot right on top, no stand. Made a windscreen out of a  
heavy foil cookie sheet from the grocery store.
