The Swan has additional insulation for superior, four-season warmth. An anatomically shaped hood with neck baffles keeps warm air trapped through the night. Thoughtful design features keep down from shifting and eliminate drafts through zippers and openings.
The dictionary defines Universal as applicable to all purposes, conditions, or situations …perfect words for the Universal Frame. It’s an outstanding cat frame that can be converted to several different types of raft frames. Save money, save weight.
Self-purging pump features improved threads for added durability, is easy to adjust and won’t leak when you remove it from the stove after cooking.
This is the lightest, most reliable pump on the market, redesigned to improve the performance of all MSR liquid-fuel stoves. It offers unmatched durability, easier field maintenance, and superior flame control for more cooking options than ever.
No prime, minimal grime. The compact and lightweight MSR PocketRocket is a superb canister stove for minimalist adventures and hassle-free weekend backpacking trips. This small design tucks away in the corner of most packs and features a profile smaller than most MSR IsoPro fuel canisters. Unlike liquid fuel stoves, there’s no need to hassle with priming the stove–just turn the knob and light the burner. Hot water is moments away. One eight-ounce MSR IsoPro fuel canister will burn for a 60-minute average.
Widely considered the best remote-canister stove, the MSR WindPro is a favorite of many seasoned backpackers and climbers. Although white gas stoves with remote fuel bottles remain popular, more and more campers are catching-on to the advantages of isopropane canister fuel. The WindPro is designed for use with isopropane, which is attractive to campers because it doesn’t require priming and provides heat output similar to white gas. And working in tandem with this camping stove, isopropane fuel offers precise flame adjustment. The stove itself is the lightest remote-canister stove on the market, weighing just 6.8 ounces. The WindPro is the only remote-canister stove sold with a windscreen and heat reflector and wind tests show that it performs better than the competition’s remote-canister offerings. One eight-ounce MSR IsoPro fuel canister brings approximately 15 liters of water to a boil from a starting temperature of 21º C.
Incredible fit is supportive and bonds the shoe to foot as if one. Surgically precise performance.
A fresh interpretation of an Acorn classic, the Acorn Confetti Slipper Sock for Women hugs your tired dogs after a long day on the mountain, or lounging in the cabin next to the wood stove. The Confetti Slipper is therapy for your feet.
The Mammut Bionic Mythos Twistlock Carabiner is streamlined and durable. This carabiner has all the advantages of Beam technology. An all-purpose HMS for the demanding user. HMS carabiner designed for alpine use: minimum weight, small size and still fully usable for HMS belaying and all other safety devices.
