    I have used dried hash brown potatoes with dried onion and an envelope of corned beef. It made a huge meal for two but we sucked it down in a heartbeat. With pita bread and envelopes of ketchup....

    I used to use only white gas stoves with slow simmering, but I can no longer find the time for much more than overnights. I am about to try a propane stove as it promises to cut my load dramatically....

    This is an excellent idea and perhaps superior to simply drying bottled sauce as I have done. I guarantee, I will try it this winter. I would do it sooner but I have no more than a month of walking...

    I have a pair of water shoes that look like sneakers, they cover the whole foot and have laces but have a thin non slip sole, very light. If I used camp shoes, they might be a candidate.

    I own in my collection the GI version of a Svea 123, I think it is called something like GS ! and has the advantage of burning automotive fuel if necessary. It is, however a bit heavier.
