Re: Single burner hiking stove recommendations
I think it depends what your intentions are. If you’re planning on boiling water for mountain house, etc I think the jetboil is hands down the best stove you can get. If you want to cook eggs, bacon and pancakes I would say you need one of the other msr type stoves with a lightweight frying pan. I just did 4 days in the backcountry with three people and heated up all of our dehydrated meals with one small fuel canister and the jetboil(I can tell you the size if you want me to go look).
as for fuel, I only buy the all season. This last trip I used a can of msr and it seemed to boil faster longer than whatever I used last year. It might be just me, but it didn’t seem to slow down as much as whatever I was using.
I have a single burner propane one I throw in my quad and the odd day out in the field I’ll throw a pack of johnsonvilles in the back for a nice mid day snack.
