TT DR. Its free standing and we go places you need that. and put together the GF and i are < 300 LBS. so thats plenty of room.
GSI full sized dualist paired with snow peek giga. The snow peak has a flame with larger area when its turned down. The temp control at low temps is not nearly as good as my PR but it cooks delicate things better. Also this pot has the best non stick I have ever seen in or out of a kitchen also it has the ceramic coating for even heat distrabution. The combination of these two will let you cook anything you want and everything fits inside, it takes up little room in your pack. People complain about its weight when full but you have to remember it has fuel, stove, pot, lid, sink, 2 cups, 2 bowls, 2 foons, and a lighter. That is everytihng you need to feed 2 to 4 people. its not much of a weight penelty when you consider what else you no longer have to carry. I lead trips and this never stays home unless I am solo. I have a dozen alky stoves, MSR PR, MSR wisper international, MSR simmerlight, MSR reactor, 3 different styles of jet boil......And atleast 20 pots. They all have advantages, weight, speeed, cold weather, cooking ability. The snow peak giga + GSI dualist is light ish, KISS, and has the ability to cook anything you can cook at home on a stove. /rant
Kershaw chill - long blade, keeps and edge, full metal skeleton frame for strength, about 1 OZ. no other knife is as light with a blade that long, and a frame.
I would love to see a thread called what is your worst piece of gear that you keep brining.. mine would be my REI sub kilo 20* down sleeping bag. nice and light and pakc small but its cut WAY to slim and its maybe a 35* bag. The zipper is in the wrong place to mate bags, leaks feathers, rips all the time, cant return it cuz its got an X. my only other bag is a marmot 650 fill 0* bag that is too big too heavy and to warm for anything other than winter camping(great bag). there for I allways carry and allways hate my REI bag.
