[pct-l] Alcohol needs

[Montedodge@aol.com]

An alcohol stove will use around a quart a week in fuel. ( figure 5 oz. per
day) 2 and 1 half oz each meal. I like alcohol over most canister stoves.
White gas stove will use 3 to 3 and ahalf ozs. per day on trail. ( this are my
own figures) Alcohol stoves were used on antartic trips by Scott and Admiral
Bird with good  results.
