[Philmont] One more stove question

They sell white gas, which is always available, and they carry Coleman powermax cartridges, which can be used in the Coleman Peak One Expert and Extreme Stoves (one has 3 legs, one has 4). In 2005 they had plenty of both in backcountry, but I would probably try to carry enough cartridges to last the entire trek. We were pretty wasteful, and used about 7 of them. Cartridges are about 4 or 5 bucks each, so the white gas option is much more affordable, The cartridges must be packed out, but they can be punctured flattened and recycled, I don't know about propane.

Thanks again,
