...If you really do want the latest, most fancy, up to the minute backpacking stove then look at the rest of this great manufacturers range!!! There will most certainly be an MSR stove there just for someone just like you! If however, just like little old me, you really want a go anywhere and do just about anything stove, to backpack all around this world with, then PLEASE do look no further. Your journey for finding a perfect backpackers stove is over, and you have arrived at your requested detination, right on time!!! I own two of these excellent stoves, both bought from Field and Trek, if I recall correctly. I got my first of these when Chris Townsend reccomended them in Trail magazine, or was it TGO???

Advantages: High Volume and Superb stability with heavy loads Disadvantages: Military image - olive green
...You don't see the Vulcan around much these days but I had one and it was a rock steady backpack. Manufactured by Berghaus for the serious mountaineer but affectionately used by the military and forces due to its high volume and stability when loaded to the maximum.
Features
100litre volume with two detatchable side pockets (very useful for expeditioners who have trekked to a base camp and then require a day pack for day walks etc) - the pack comes with straps to turn the side pockets into a small backpack. A feature copied by many other manufacturers.
Internal frame that can be moulded to your back. High density foam in the right areas to prevent chaffing and rubbing (eg hips, shoulders and lower back - good lumbar support)
My one had a divider between the main sac - not sure that this was common but very useful to keep dirty...

Advantages: Cheap, light, the back packers friend Disadvantages: Bulky, can damage pride if mate beats you in combat ;o)
...with these things is that although they are light, when rolled they take up around the same space as a well packed sleeping bag, which can be a downer if you are backpacking. Ants' tip of the day however is to roll it up around your sleeping bag so it fits in the sleeping bag attatchment bit of your backpack. Yes, I know I'm a genius ;o)
Oh yeah, another tip for a comfortable nights sleeping is if you are in a field with long grass, cut some of it and shove it under your groundsheet as it acts like a cushion. While minimal it can make the difference.
Sleep well, and thanks for reading :o)...

To sum up in one sentence: These will take your breath away!
From the moment the box arrives, you know these mean business. The delivery agent couldn't even lift the box out of the van, I had to do it myself. This is how speakers should be - not... more
