[pct-l] Stoves for the PCT , And fuel



 First , you can use Potato Chips for a stove fuel. Lays chips burn 7 minutes!!!
  MSR?? good stoves though heavy. You can find( or bum) Coleman fuel. Larger towns sell Crown Fuel ( like REI) which is even better than Coleman fuel with less gum. You can you Auto fuel in your MSR, but buy lowest Octane fuel which is 87 here is Washington. Coleman fuel is 82 octane. It will gum up your fuel line, but just spray it out with Carb clean from an Auto parts store. Should be fine.
  Lighter stoves alcohol stoves which are the top choice. Go to  " Pika" stove sight by Deems Burton or " Traildad's " site with Roy Robinson's famous Cat stove.
  If you go to the Kick-Off this year, several stove experts will be on hand to walk you through making your own stove. ( And make friends at same time)
  Fuel is easier to find each year for both types of stoves. Good luck!
