Backpacking stove for one

[wevans1998]

I recently purchased an Argali 2p Rincon.

I plan on running this tent with a stove for later season mule deer and spring black bear (which has proved to be extremely snowy where i hunted this spring).

I typically hike 1-3 miles deep, solo. Im curious what the best stove option is for one person with a rincon?

Weight and cost would be the biggest factors.

I only have experience with a Lite Outdoors stove, which is a cylindrical style. I use it with their baffle in a SO Cimarron. It's plenty light, works well, and packs nice.

My only gripe would be that I find it a little finicky to assemble. I don't have hands on experience with the more common rectangular, folding style stoves, but I imagine they're easier to setup.

If you're in a situation where you're staying in one location from start to finish, this isn't a big deal; but if you're moving camp a lot, it could become a bit of a downer.

I would look at the Argali stove or the Seekoutside SXL.

Buy a stove from @renagde. It is better and lighter than anything on the market.

I have the Three Ridges Wild Wild West Hot Stove, and it weighs 4 pounds 9 ounces. The stove works really well, but it is a bit on the heavy side. Looking back, I probably would’ve gone with one of the lightest-weight stoves I could find. At nearly five pounds, this one is almost too heavy for me to want to pack deep into the backcountry.

That said, for shorter trips — especially one- to five-mile treks — it’s really not a bad option at all, and I’ve had a lot of success with it

I use the Gohunt stove and it’s been fine. No complaints.
