@@CampingGearReport no, there are 4 chapels. He identified 3 but forgot the LDS chapel. It may be hard to see from the video but the road the scouts are walking down ends at a gate with another road forming a T intersection. You can see the Catholic Chapel in the video. He actually points over where the LDS chapel is to indicate the Protestant Chapel. At that T intersection, facing it from the direction of the video, Catholic is on the right before the gate, LDS is on the left before the gate, and Protestant is across the road that forms the T and on the left. As a side note, it is at the LDS Chapel the we do the Chaplain Aide talk after dinner.

~3.5 days of use per year you say? So essentially, this is a first impressions review. Also, this is not to be compared to an iso butane stove. They have different use cases. Have you tried using an iso butane cannister stove in -13f? How about above the tree line in freezing temperatures exposed to wind? The stove has performed flawlessly on some of the most extreme and dangerous expeditions on planet Earth. I get that you’re playing with Scouts in the backyard, but it’s annoying to read Clickbait titles like “don’t buy“ when you frankly have no idea what you’re talking about. The stove is not marketed as a replacement or substitution or competitor to simple lightweight iso butane stoves. Enjoy your s’mores and I hope you don’t get smoke in your eyes.

The whisperlite no longer warrants use. Therefore the average a days used per year will continue to fall. I used it exclusively for years, back when it was the best option. Iso is used on Everest expeditions. I appreciate that you like your old tech stove. But I review gear for a living and the VAST majority will never camp in the specific set of circumstances where a pump wg stove MAY have an advantage. Continuing to recommend obsolete tech would be a disservice to those who find my reviews.

@@CampingGearReport it’s true that isobutane can be used at ultra high elevation. At a certain altitude, they begin to perform again, however, still very poorly. The only reason they’re able to use these stoves at all is because they begin to work somewhat above 5000 metres where the boiling point is reduced by almost half. The altitude we are talking about here is far beyond the scope of 99.999% of users. The fact remains that isobutane canisters do not perform well at -11 and become almost completely useless at -25 in all but the most extreme altitudes. If your winter camping in many places in the world, you cannot use iso butane canisters with any reliability or performance

So, you think many people looking for gear advice on YT camp in the conditions you noted? I don't. Know the audience. The people camping in those conditions aren't looking on here for stove recommendations. The ones that are will be better served by an ISO stove. :)

The more gradual ascent from Baldy Town up through Copper Park is easier, IMHO. We came down the steeper way. I think that is fine. I would have really preferred coming down the steeper way if I had not broken my foot that morning. Steep downhill was super painful.

I used them for decades too. They were great when they came out. Some of the best options available. However, today, there are plenty of stoves that you don't have to read the manual at all, or do maintenance, or carry a spare parts kit, or know how to field strip and rebuild them on the trail. I don't contest that they used to be a great option. Rather, they are no longer the best option. :)

I used an InReach Mini 2 as a communication device for family at home as well as for an emergency SOS and GPS tracker on our trek in 2024. We did have a medical situation that took one of our Scouts off trail, but were able to use cell service to discuss a plan with the infirmary. We had cell signal on the top of the ridge at Upper Greenwood camp.

I own a few hiking stoves, including the MSR Whisperlite. The first hiking stove I bought was a Trangia. I also have a small butane stove. I think the MSR is ok. To be honest the Trangia is my preferred stove. It is a complete system and incredibly reliable. If I am using a hiking stove I am on holidays and don’t care that my Trangia is slow to boil water. My ranking is Trangia, the Whisperlite and finally my butane stove. I prefer not using the disposable canisters of the butane stoves.

I just bought this pot and the greenpeaks stove. I have the pocket rocket deluxe. The deluxe is a far better stove. If you want to use the deluxe all you have to do is slightly turn in the supports as if you're about to put it away. I don't mean bend them, I mean start to turn them in. Then it fits perfectly. And boils super fast. Best I could do boiling 500ml cold tap water using the greenpeak is 2min30s. With the deluxe 1min45s. I wish I had saved my money and didn't buy the greenpeak.

Never had a problem. Use alcohol to prime. You mentioned getting burned, broken pump handle, I suspect the scouts were a little careless.
@CampingGearReport
@CampingGearReport 2 ай бұрын
Why take a stove that requires an additional fuel type for priming when there are other stove options that require no priming at all? The pump handle broke because it was being pumped. There is no such risk of pump handle failure in stoves that do not need to be pumped. But we need to remember that many pumped stoves have metal pumps. This one is plastic. That is a failure point.
