Camping and backpacking
1. Camp Stoves and Backpacking
by Howard Hicks
When making preparations for a backpacking or hiking
outing, conserving space is one of the most important
things to consider. Important also is keeping the overall
weight of your backpack within the limits you are
comfortable with.
Doing all of this while still having the essentials you need
can, to say the least, be a real challenge.
One of the essential items you should have is a good
camp stove.
Camp stove an essential?
One might think that a camp stove on a back packing or hiking trip, while being a nice convenience, is
not essential or very practical due to it's size and weight. Still, having a good camping stove would
make cooking at meal time a much more pleasant experience and essential if you want a hot meal and
are unable to build a campfire.
One answer to this dilemma is the Optimus Crux. The Optimus Crux is one of the best portable stoves
for backpacking on the market today. This stove is incredibly lightweight and is great for hiking and
backpacking. At less than three ounces you won't even notice the additional weight in your backpack.
Also at 3.3 x 2.2 x 1.2 inches it will take up a very small amount of space.
Don't let it's size fool you though. Once you pull the Optimus Crux out of your pack and set it up, you
will realize that it's size doesn't hinder it's ability of being a powerful cooking apparatus. With a 3000w
burner and 10,200 btu's of heat! This marvelous little stove will operate up to one full hour at
maximum output using a 220 g canister and will boil water in 3 minutes, depending on climate,
altitude, etc.
It has an innovative folding burner head and a convenient strap-on protective stuff bag, so it folds down
to nothing and stores in the empty base of your LP-gas canister.
The Optimus Crux is a technical wonder, designed for minimal weight and size it is specifically made
for the backpacker who refuse to compromise cooking performance.
With the Optimus Crux in your backpack, instead of having to build a campfire and wait for the coals
to build up, or worse yet because of your surroundings not being able to build a fire at all. You will be
confident in the knowledge that no matter how far into the wilderness your journey takes you, you will
be able to sit down at the end of the day, appreciate your surroundings and enjoy a good hot meal
