How much fuel for MSR Dragonfly?

Hello all,

I was wondering how much fuel a climbing team should bring for Rainier. It would be 5 people for 4 nights. Making water to cook noodles, pasta, etc for 4 nights, plus drinking water and 4 mornings of oatmeal or dried eggs. Using an MSR Dragonfly. Any advice with this would be great.

The old standby (NOLS formula) amount is 4oz per person per day in summer, more in winter. That equates to 80oz for you.

 

You can probably get by with less, but how much less depends on how careful you are with water melting, excessive boiling, and desired amount of hot drinks.
