We will discuss available lightweight stove options and you will have an opportunity to try out some different models. Meet at the gear cupboard at Sam Cracknell Pavilion
The use of lightweight stoves is necessary for many outdoor activities such as
- Backpacking
- Cycle touring
- Backcountry skiing
One of the stoves we will be working with is the MSR Whisperlite. See this video to get an idea of how it works.
If you have a stove that you would like to bring and show off, please do. The more the merrier.
Finally if you would like to make your own ultra-lightweight alcohol stove see this site for some instructions (the “Low pressure side burner alcohol stoves are a good place to start).
