Recently I bought a British army tarp in perfect condition, then some paracord(can u see where this so going?). I haven't used it before so I'm trying to learn a simple setup and pack away routine for tying it to 2 trees. YouTube helps.Think I need a hammock next.Also got an east German kidney shape mess tin set. I chose that because I wanted a tin with a handle to hang over fire. Most tins seem to have a side handle. It seems to be a solid bit of basic kit and all stored together.
We have bought a new stove. We got the MSR pocket rocket 2. Under £30, 73g and we like MSR gear. We will be trying it out this weekend, we are away for 2 nights I await a reply from someone telling me what we should have bought instead
What a mistake - you should have gone for the Xxxxxx, it only weighs 72 grams and costs £72, at £1 per gram it is excellent value and far better than the 'heavyweight' MSR stove.
Yes but does it have mesh ?
..and its made of magic mylar, so it reflects 110% of the heat back to the pot.
The stove comes with a couple of sachets of free dehydrated water too that should lighten our packs
