WoodsWalker,
I don't know what the foil on Ti Goat stove will hold up to. That's why I asked you. smile

How light is the foil on the cylinder stove? Similar to that of a Kifaru stove pipe? That�s the only thing I have seen to compare it to.

I know you use your gear a lot. That�s why I find your posts and reviews so valuable. I plan on using my gear a lot too. The gear will be in the day pack for those "unplanned bivouacs", but it won't be in there collecting dust. I plan on being familiar enough with the equipment to where it becomes second nature. I�ve practiced setting up dome tents blindfolded and wearing mittens in the safety of the backyard, just in case I need to do it four miles from the trailhead as darkness and a storm is rolling in. eek

Right now, you�ve got me leaning towards a Kifaru stove.

Thanks again for the pictures and the reviews.


I'm intelligent enough to know I'll never be genius and I'm OK with that.
