Cooking gear:
Most people use white gas (Spanish: bencina blanca) stoves. Above Plaza
de Mulas you'll need to melt snow for water, hence bring a minimum of 5L
fuel per person (anticipating you may have to await the end of a storm
above PdM)! Do not rely on finding white gas in Puente del Inca or Plaza
de Mulas (in contrast to what some agents say). Bring a (plastic) bag to
collect snow. Bring a pot with heat exchanger. Do not forget a thermos!
Be sure to drink a lot. Water in Plaza de Mulas and
