If you don't want to lug around a bunch of equipment, "aigel's" comments are right on. Years ago with a heavy pack & being at 12K or 13K feet, I carried a mixture Taster's choice, powdered creamer, & sugar (since I don't drink mine black). It made a great hot drink to start the day. Plus at high altitudes where water boils at low temperatures, a French press or filter doesn't always work out that well. By the time you process it, the temperature gets pretty low, whereas instant coffee is drinkable immediately and still decently hot. Not a purist way to go with lots of ritual tho.
