I own a pocket rocket, a whisperlite, and I've made a pop can alcohol stove. what stove is the best and most cost effective to use for a thru hike? a pocket rocket would be awesome, but are canisters easy to find/buy along the trail or would I have to have them mailed to me. is white gas for a whisperlite hard to find along the trail? I've used a pop can stove on multi-day hikes, but never on a thru hike. are they reliable for a 5-6 month long hike?
