Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Backpack Hunting canister stove in the cold

I haven't checked, and probably won't til everything calms down, but I bet the Ace Hardware on Circle and Galley will probably have it. Probably the best variety of hardware and random stuff in the Springs.

Ace does usually have a good ass't of different materials; even if it was wider stock- 24 gauge is thin enough to easily trim to size

Remember when a Coleman Peak 1 was a lightweight backpacking stove?

I just use a windscreen in low temps. Seems to accomplish the same thing, basically, reflects heat back down to the canister. Plus keeps cook time down. Has worked down to zero degrees F for me but at lower altitudes. The copper conductor is a good idea, though.

Just something that may be useful---after spending many years in AK roaming the Brooks and the interior. I picked up a useful tip from dog Mushers. Alcohol stoves are the only thing that can be relied upon when temps get down to cold (35-50 below). I've tried most stoves and a can of pure alcohol is the only thing that can be relied on. No pressure to try to maintain, no o rings that fail to seal, just good old alcohol , a candle and waterproof matches. Works first time, every time.
Good Hunting
