What about a JetBoil?

Along with everything else listed as "essential," I also carry my JetBoil. This thing is awesome. Boils 2 cups of water in 2 minutes and the tank last for quite a few uses (40-50 times). Only weighs 15-16 oz and packs up to the size of a big cup.

I've cooked soup, Ramen, Cup-o-noodles, coffee.
The other thing I have found is "Java Juice" packets. Makes pretty good coffee out in the boonies.

Just some "extras" for the ride:D

This kind of stuff is far more important then "What track should I get" or any DVD release.

Back up for the coming season.
