Check out the little alcohol stove at www.packafeather.com.  You can 
actually control the flame on this little gem.  It does take longer to 
bring water to a boil that a white gas/multifuel stove, but it worked 
just fine for me on the PCT and the simmer really does simmer. 

Doing the kind of miles you must do to complete the PCT in the limited 
window, you'll probably not want to do any gourmet cooking.  This stove 
worked great for me to cook up my mac n cheese with spam or 
Knorr/Liptons side with foil tuna/salmon/chicken.  I took the Simmerlite 
that I carried on the PCT on a winter hike this weekend and, except for 
melting snow for water, wished I had my packafeather.
