Ponyo - Pacific Crest Trail Journal - 2010

Fuel

I have a primus stove that burns the iso-butane canister mix. And through EXTENSIVE online research, I have a list of places on the trail that I can buy, made by Erik The Black http://blackwoodspress.com/blog/317/fuel-canisters-on-the-pacific-crest-trail/ IMHO- he's done some great research, even made his own guide books and maps.

So, I'll be stopping in some of these places to get fuel resupply (2 cans of Snow Peak 250g). And the rest, I'll have mailed to me via ground/ parcel post clearly labeled ORM-D and Surface Mail and Consumer Commodity. In most cases, I'll just be like 5-7 bucks (if i calculated right). And I'll have them mailed out 3 weeks in advance.

I'm taking a homemade pot cozy and will be cooking 11 meals a week on the stove. Worst case senerio: I run a little short on fuel and have to let my noddles soak a little longer and a little crunchier. :)
