A lot more maintenance using gasoline. Unless you know how to work on your stove the time spent looking for stove fuel may be well spent.

I just looked it up by google query, and I am completely wrong about the octane rating of Coleman fuel. It is very low, 50 to 55.

It has always been my understanding that Coleman fuel, and other brands of "white gas", are up in the low to mid 90's for octane rating...though I could be wrong. So that is why I suggested high octane.

Why high octane?

I also use a Whisperlite. I've never tried anything but Coleman white gas or equal that the hardware store sells, but if I was without, I'd maybe try the high-octane ethanol free gas I can get at a few stations around here. Been a year or maybe even two since I bought any Coleman fuel. I...

I’ve got the whisperlite international that will burn anything as long as you change the orifice. Gas, diesel, kerosene, white gas, fuel oil. The Whisperlite is pretty forgiving as far a fuel choices go. Just keep the jet clean.

In a pinch you can use regular unleaded in a whisperlite, it's just a bit dirty.

Idk but have a good time

We’re off in the morning for a (short) camping trip with the grandkids. Taking them to a waterfall where we’ll hike in and hammock camp for the night. Been digging out all my camping gear, as it hasn’t been used in several years. I packed my MSR Whisperlite stove and refilled my fuel bottles. I...

That’s the one. I got three quarters through reading it and now it is in the house somewhere. I should dig it out and finish it.

That'll do.

:lol:

Yes they are. The Golden Spruce is the book.

Nice. Thanks for the reply. The Haida? Are they the people that the logger felled their sacred tree as a protest to logging? He then disappeared and remains of his canoe found but never a body. Pete Mctree lent me a book about it a few years back now.

Good question Rich. The coastal tribes here are mostly Tlingit and Haida and they have a long tradition of using both Western redcedar and Alaska yellow cedar for totem poles around their villages. Our local tribe here in Wrangell is in the process of re establishing and developing new master...

Thing is with Norway. You can go to work in the morning and it might be just undr freezing or just above. So you wear wool undergarments. Then by 12 it can be close to 15c and you sweating your whatsits off. Then a few days later you leave the wools at home and it doesn’t get up past 7c. I...

It sounds like it has been warmer in Norway than it has been here.

Esmeralda has decided she loves this one...

They found a dugout not that long ago in Madison Lake Mendota (I think) dated to 1200 years old.
