Reply To: Best Winter/Cold Weather Stove

I’ve used my trail designs 600 ml Sidewinder Ti-Tri in winter conditions here in NY to boil water for my dinner. I used the kojin alcohol stove with it, no problems at all. It also has the options to use esbit or wood burning (if you get the inferno with it). I like it because it gives me 3 options for fuel and is light weight and it all nestles into the 600ml pot,  small and compact.

I recently picked up a 1 liter MSR Reactor and a 1 liter MSR windburner kit to play with this coming winter. They are bigger and bulkier and heavier, but faster to boil water or melt snow. Definitely not ultra light at all.
