Propane Camping Stove & Single Burner Stoves
 

The Propane Camping Stove vs.The Backpacking Stove

I don't own a backpacking stove.  I do have a camping stove that my Dad gave me.  The propane camping stove would work fine for day trips where portaging was not involved. I would not use it on wilderness trips however!  That said, I have been camping with others that brought their small backpacking stove (single burner) along and it definitely was a nice addition.  You could brew up some coffee on short notice - nice for those day trips out fishing, eating lunch out on an island.  In one really, really rainy trip, I remember this stove coming in handy when a fire was difficult to build. Also, if there is a fire ban, you really have no choice but to have one (or two) of these stoves on the trip.

Jetboil Personal Cooking System The Jetboil stove is a self-contained cooking system that is a little larger than a Nalgene bottle. Thanks to a patented Flux Ring that distributes heat evenly over the bottom of the cup, the Jetboil can boil a cup full of water in 30 seconds.
