Looking at doing a thru on the AT. Have done about 700 miles so far but plan to start over and do it all. Have used a pepsi can stove but am considering a Jetboil. Philosophical question: My approach so far has been to boil water and pour it into lipton sides, freeze dried meals, etc with little actual cooking (but some actual cooking). Is a Jetboil overkill for me - either the flash or the minimo. If I do it I am leaning toward the minimo, but would like some input on whether to do the flash, minimo, (or just keep on using the alcohol stove). Your thoughts appreciated.
