Ultralight Gourmet? Hiking on the AT with a Titanium Frying Pan for Winter Meals

Описание к видео Ultralight Gourmet? Hiking on the AT with a Titanium Frying Pan for Winter Meals

We take advantage of Winter to carry (and cook) fresher food that won't spoil in the colder temperatures during multi-day Section Hikes on the Appalachian Trail.

Winter's cooler weather means fresh food lasts longer and allows us to carry and cook tastier food on trail instead of relying on Ramen or freeze dried meals.

We try replacing our Toaks 750 pot with a 1000 ml titanium frying pan to cook eggs, bacon and biscuits on trail. The challenge was finding a frying pan that was relatively light and worked well with a camp stove.

Overall the Boundless Voyage pan (with non-stick coating and lid) worked well and we'll keep using it this winter.

Specs -
Weight (without lid): 4.6 oz / 130.4 g
Weight (with lid): 7.4 oz / 209.8 g
Diameter (inside): 7.09 in / 180 mm
Height (inside): 1.97 in / 50 mm

Some Lessons Learned:
Fuel Consumption using an MSR Pocket Rocket:
Cooking 2 eggs and 2 slices of bacon used 6 grams of fuel.
Boiling 2 cups (473 ml) of water used 6 grams of fuel
Since titanium heats so fast, it's best to put the food (or water) in the pan before heating it
The pan is hottest right above the stove (obviously), so when cooking food, it's best to keep stirring and to use low heat.
A plastic spatula did not scratch the non-stick coating but melted a little. We might try a wooden spatula.
Did not need oil to cook eggs
Was easy to clean with just water and the spatula
Lid helps boil water faster and cook biscuits better
