At the time it gave Tupelo a halftime advantage over host Starkville in the Division A opener for both teams. But that Fields trey turned into a momentum-changing run for the Golden Wave. Tupelo, ranked No. We wanted to stay sharp and just the basic fundamental stuff. Tupelo junior Gavin Shannon led a balanced scoring attack with 23 points, while Fields had Hayes Halbert and Logan Fuller each had 10 points, as well.
We want to keep talking to each other and make sure we are in the right spots. Junior Makhi Myles had a game-high 28 points for Starkville, which led after one quarter but never led in the second half. They came out strong and we came out flat. We did some things well, but we saw a lot of things we have to improve on. In a big district game in front of a big crowd, you got to be ready from the jump.
Turning Point: Leading by just three at halftime, Tupelo opened the second half on an run and never looked back. Point Maker: Shannon led a balanced Golden Wave attack with 23 points, including 17 in the second half. Talking Point: "It's tremendous. To open up the district with a win over one of the best teams is tremendous. And we may be one of the best teams, too. An email has been sent to with a link to confirm list signup.

Do you find that fire restrictions affect your use of an alcohol stove? I am trying to decide whether to buy a Caldera or a Jetboil. Coming from Southern California where there is ongoing drought, it seems that alcohol stoves are not permitted in many forest areas. Will, you are correct, fire restrictions are much kinder to canister stoves.
The most conservative choice if you are buying only one stove, would be a canister stove like the JetBoil. I have both types. The TD alcohol stove is my first choice, but I sometimes have a canister stove as a backup in the car in case of last minute reg changes. That being said, there are far more times when I get to use the alcohol stove. Have a great hiking season, -alan. I always leave out with a full can and save the partial full can for car camping.
Some through hikers on tight budgets appreciate these as donations. Avoid leaving very empty cans in donation because this is more of a problem than a help. Please be considerate. Sounds like a good idea.
Only comment is that the propane usually burns of faster than the butane. Not the end of the world. Hi Allen! A definite must for any canister stove user.
Since the can doing the filling is inverted and draining liquid fuel, I wonder if the gas separation is an issue? Thank you! Once empty, the crush-it key from JetBoil works like a charm. Alan, I have and use both. For up to day trips I usually bring a canister. This is the max I can go on one gm canister. For longer, I go with an old WG stove that weighs about 17oz. I agree completely, half full canisters are NO fun.
The Caldera sheet metal cone is nicely designed but has sharp edges which could cut you or cut fabric. Spend 3 minutes sanding the edges with medium grit sandpaper and it will make it much smoother. The melting issues as I understand were occurring because people would start the stove without first filling it with water! Very silly to do with any stove but with titanium the abrupt expansive forces will snap the fins off of the base.
Without the legs and soup cup both unnecessary mine is in the 8 oz range plus fuel. I used to carry a fancy feast alcohol stove but have found that the Jetboil system with canisters actually weighs less on trips of more than three days due to the much energy density of isopropyl. Although a very accurate estimation of remaining fuel can be made by measuring full and empty canister weights then interpolating the current weight. I am planning a CDT thru next year and I want to take my TriTi with me, but I am concerned about burn bans prohibiting alcohol stoves on one hand and the logistics of refueling canister stoves on the other.
So I was wondering if I could find a compromise. To keep pack weight down, I would not carry the wood-burning kit with the TriTi, relying on alcohol, with the canister as my backup fuel, to cook. Alan, thank you again for your priceless site and valuable feedback. Nothing wrong with Esbit. But others do not feel this way. Major downside is that if you need to do air travel, Esbit is very difficult to purcahse when you land.
Any particular reason? Actually the original is better for wider diameter pots in the 0. It works just fine in the Caldera.
They are also a lot easier to cook in and clean. It has a smaller concentrated flame for the smaller bottom of these pots.
While I do like alcohol stoves, I have recently been working on backpacking dinners curry chicken, chicken alfredo, beef stew that require some simmering to come out well. For me the JetBoil Minimo at a fairly light weight So I am willing to sacrifice some weight to be able to boil water for coffee, and simmer my slightly better than most option dinners.
Just a thought and it has taken me a ton of time to figure out how I want to eat while hiking. Good info. I am only about 8 trips into my JetBoil Flash. I love the efficiency and speed and the only concern is that the piezo igniter is not that reliable I am afraid it will fail totally and soon. I am reading up on the igniters and they seem to be a problem for others, too.
Gary, I would suggest always bringing some other form of ignition. Piezo igniters are notoriously unreliable. Not just JetBoil but most stoves.
Not really sure why they are on stoves to begin with. All the best, -alan. Alan……thanks so much for the thoughtful review! A few notes ….. Good fall back option at minimum should you run out of fuel….. Have both, love both. Have had no problems with either. Sometimes hotter faster is what I want…….. Plus the ability to fry is so much better using my Jetboil…….. And yes, I do use them up, if not on the trail, then I use them up in the field during working hours, or simply by having a cup of coffee in the backyard.
Puncture the empty and toss. And I never leave the country so not finding fuel has never presented a problem for me ……… yet. Plus, which is a big plus, no noise to speak of….. No jet fighter noise to deal with. So comforting….. Late in the evening, or up early in the morning boiling water for my cocoa, coffee, or tea…… just listening to the wonderful world in the wilds. Thanks Dave, my experience as well. I rarely, if ever have lost time waiting for a boil.
Quiet is good. Of course, that goes beyond the scope of your discussion. I would worry about the Titanium fins being unprotected in light of reliability reports, but maybe I could see leaving behind the bottom cup with the Aluminum Zip or Flash Lite.
My biggest gripe with any canister stove is the collection of half-full fuel canisters which I am somehow loathe to take on my next trip. You can lighten your JetBoil significantly by picking a different model. Although it has now been discontinued, the JetBoil Sol Ti is my all time favorite.
That puts it within competitive range to the Caldera Cone. I think they discontinued the Titanium products due cost as well as reliability issues online reports of the heat exchanger fins melting off the cup. I also found the boil time of the Sol Ti to be on the low end of the minutes you quote.
When boiling water for people, the fast boil time made a big difference, especially for the person who was last in line to get their water boiled. Thanks Jeff, good point that fast boil times are certainly a major strength of the JetBoil.
Especially when boiling large amounts of water as you point out. I carefully weighed my very current JetBoil Zip in at That included the tripod, pot lid, and bottom pot cover. Your email address will not be published.
