water purifier hiking
How much propane(in weight) does a small camp stove use? is there a more efficient fuel?
I am considering back packing and dont know what fuel to use. Would I get more cooking time for weight from sterno, propane, or Smoething else? Also, how can i make a simple dehidrator, a water purifier, and what should i pack? What are some good websites about hiking and backpacking?
If you are backpacking, you want a gasoline powered stove, not propane. Propane tanks are heavy, but gasoline can be toted in lightweight aluminum containers that are designed for the purpose. Sterno cans are not as heavy as propane containers, but you still have to tote out the empties, and that’s not fun. Go to a sporting good store such as REI, and talk to some people there; you will learn a lot. Or go to their web site.
