Made my pilgrimage to Goodwill this afternoon and found this nifty little stainless steel pot for 99 cents. I've seen others that are variations on the old Sierra Cup, but none with the 16oz/one pint capacity that this one has. It is 4.9oz on the scale, 4-3/4" across the top, 3-3/4 on the bottom and 2-3/8" tall. I like the stable design. It is marked "PINT CASCADE CUP, Pat. # 4,593,833". I found a few vague references on the Web, so I assume it is out of production. Great for a PSK and day/solo hiking. Add a little tin foil for a lid and you have a good cook pot, water boiler, bowl and cup.

nice score dale.... :thumbup: i scored a little MSR pot w/ a lid recently, at a thrift store....:D
 
That's great; I saw a pretty nice MSR pot the other day for $84:eek:. You've saved enough to buy a pretty decent knife:D.
 
You lucky bum. . . I never find anything that cool at Goodwill. :grumpy:

Okay, there was the Woolrich Jacket for 5 bucks, and a giant old Craftsman back saw for about 4, and probably some other stuff that I'm forgetting about. It's just that I've been keeping an eye out for a nice little pot for backpacking and I never find anything that's quite what I want. The one you scored looks almost perfect. Good score!
 
Aw, man- I thought this thread was about cheap POT:grumpy:
I'm outta here!
 
I'm gonna be honest, when you said "Cheap pot", I thought you were talking about something else... ;) :D :p
