Congrats on the AT thru-hike-50 miles is no joke. Ultralight’s tempting, but I’ve been at this 20 years and still swear by my old-school titanium mug from Evernew. It’s 2.6oz, boils water fast without scorching, and doubles as a mini-pot. Saved my bacon on wet Smokies trips when fancy gear failed. Budget pick over those packs any day. You hitting Grayson Highlands this fall? Leaves are killer there.
