This is in response to the HEY CRAZY MIKE!!! Thread (I cant post to most threads with !!! In the topic for some reason)

No, we havent made it on many trips this year, if you know how crazy the year has been you would certainly understand and mike refuses to go packing much without me. BUT we are planning to get back into the swing of things before to much longer. As for the trip you mention I am unsure yet. I have to find out first if we get that weekend off.

It was in reference to backpacking. This IS a backpacking site right? Besides, I didn't even start a new thread for it. Now if I started a thread asking her what color panties she was wearing today I could unerstand. Well Free, sense I brought it up, what color are they today? :)

"Do you still have your Sierra stove? I'm thinking about getting one."

Sorry I missed that! I sold mine. I liked the stove a lot and it worked well. I liked it best for solo hikes and hikes where time isn’t a factor. It is slower than regular stoves and there’s a fiddle factor to it (I love the fiddle factor myself!). I never had a problem with black mess getting on anything because I carried it in a gallon sized zip lock and I never had trouble finding fuel or getting it to start. Just a bit of drier lent and hand sanitizer and it took right off every time. I seem to go solo very rarely anymore that the stove wasn’t getting used.

Most of my hikes will be solo and I never get in a hurry. Whats the point of doing that. A hike is a mini vacation for me. I just wanted make sure its worth $50 bucks or not. I noticed to that they they make a windscreen/grill for it. That's not really needed is it?
LNSTR74
3:27:52 PM

I never really saw a need for a windscreen and I think the grill would be too small for grilling anything bigger than a White Castle hamburger. Then there's the mess of the greese.

Yeah, I'd say it's worth $50.

cool thanks. I will start saving the pennies. lol

Just be sure to clean it up a bit and keep it dry after each hike. While the outer part is aluminum there are some steel parts on it that will corrode a bit if not taken care of. I wish I still had mine to pass along to ya because I sold it for $20.

Oman what a deal. So what kind of stove do you take now?

I have a MSR Pocket Rocket, an Esbit stove and a Svea 123 that all split the duties. The Pocket Rocket is the most used but the 123 is my favorite.

Ok this will be a dumb question but I new to backpacking.So how do you pack in the White gas/coleman fuel for the thing? I haven't come up with a good way yet.
LNSTR74

There's no such thing as a dumb question. If I had a nickle for every question I ever asked I'd be rich. :)

When it’s white gas you can use a fuel bottle like this and it’s best to add a fuel faucet like this to save from spills. The other types of fuel like the gas canisters are self contained.

your on probation with ebanott?? why no one else is!! they were welcomed with open arms. I guess because of your reckless posting they may fear you are not their type.

It's probably the ratio of BS posts to hiking posts that makes them nervous. Hell, I make me nervous.
Nigal

you need to head down this way some time for some hiking (turning this into an ebanott approved thread). Lots of places to go to.

Smokies is a good place but so is Savage Gulf/Fiery Gizzard.

Nigal, you need to come down for a Smokies trip. I know it's about 4-5 hrs from Cincy. What part of the state are you from?

I'm only about an hour north of the River. It takes me about 6-7 hours to get down to Tattlinburge, Tenn.
Nigal

That isn't too bad. That's about how long it takes me to get to Mt. Rogers or Roan Mtn.
