This has been posted before but it may be helpful to repeat for this season.
MEASURING REMAINING FUEL IN CANISTERS:
1. AT HOME> Float FULL canister in water & mark the waterline on canister. (Be sure to tilt the canister when putting it in the water to evacuate all air from the concave bottom.)
2. ON THE TRAIL> Repeat the procedure in #1 and mark the canister. Doing this daily will let you know if you need to ration fuel use toward the end of the trip.
That's a good reminder, Eric. It's always good to let the new people know how this is done. I would also suggest measuring an empty canister the same way, and then set it next to the full one and make the same "empty" mark on that one.
Or…just buy MSR Isopro canisters, which have the markings right on the label (great idea, Cascade Designs!).
