[pct-l] HELP - cooking options

[m.karon@xxxxxxxxx (Marshall Karon)]

Check past discussions and archives on stoves and fuel. The favorite seems
to be those next to no weight and no cost alcohol stoves for boiling water
and then letting your food soak. Fuel is generally available (alcohol or
gasoline dry gas - Heet, etc.) . I still like my GigaPower canister stove
because of the controls. However, fuel is not generally available and you
need to mail it to yourself ground transportation. Plus, you have the extra
weight of the canister.
