Title: Re: Backpack Stove
Post by PJinHawaii on Feb 24th, 2011 at 2:43am
For my warm weather trips (assuming there is no burn ban) I carry two stoves.

1. Snowpeak Giga with some canisters (but not enough canisters to do all the cooking... maybe about 50%)

and

2. a "Bush Buddy" twig stove.   (You need to Login or Register
The twig stove can boil water with just a hand ful of twigs. I like it because were I go canoe camping I can almost always find a hand full of dry twigs and if it's so wet that I can't I can either resort to a pre-bagged stash of twigs or go with the Snowpeak. With the twig stove I can never run out of fuel. And it only weights 5.5 oz. It can be a bit laborious compared to the snow peak but it's not too bad.  I like it. especially for long duration trips where it can save lots of heavy fuel.
