Re: My new stove setup, under 3oz. Everything but fuel.
Nice setups Nick and Chad! Chad, a 16 oz size plastic ziploc bowl is 0.9 oz without lid. I use one as my mug. Rubbermaid and maybe Ziploc also have a smaller 8 oz bowl which weighs even less.

Re: Best stove under $75
A campfire or small twig fire... Because the best stove is none, Cost, weight, and fuel weight is zero. I know that's not always possible though, which is probably why you've posted t...

Re: Sleeping Bag Temp Ratings
I'm a warm sleeper with the MB #3. By itself, I'd say it's good to 30F. I could probably go down to 20F wearing my jacket, acrylic balaclava, and gloves. Unless you're a side sleepe...
