It turned a 3 minute job into a 30 minute multi tool adventure. For the record I like my Kifaru small stove better due to bomb proof construction and stove top cooking. Think the Ti-goat box stove would share much of the same goodness.


WoodsWalker,
I agree on all accounts. For me a light hunting set-up would be the Kifaru Paratipi (or 4man tipi) and a small stove.
For more of a survival rig I would go with the Ti-goat box stove and a good tarp. I use the Go-lite lair two myself.



Currently I do not have a really light box stove. I NEED one grin! but I currenly use one of these with my tarp.

Or for going real lite
The Stratus Trailstove.

For early season bow hunts where the temps aren't severe, this little guy is the bomb.
Go-lite shelter - less than 2 lbs.
Trail Stove - 14.8 oz.
