This is the gold standard for ultralight efficiency, stripping backcountry cooking down to its barest, most reliable essentials. You sacrifice the convenience of instant ignition and precise temperature dials, but in exchange, you get a virtually indestructible stove that weighs next to nothing in your pack.
