[pct-l] Titanium

[Beth Murdock <murdocbe@ohsu.EDU>]

Thinking that titanium pots would be the lightest I took my postal scale 
to REI and weighed titanium and aluminum pots.  The plain aluminum pot (2 
qt) weighed a little less than the 1.9L titanium pot.  Since the aluminum 
pot requires a separate handle, they basically weigh the same.  If you 
buy titanium you are buying for other reasons than weight.  Some say the 
titanium is easier than aluminum to clean and also that they are more 
durable.  

I ended up getting the titanium for the above reasons, mainly the easier 
cleaning.  Hate doing dishes!

Hope to see you guys next summer on the trail,
