Win a One-of-a-Kind prototype Ocelot Max Windscreen: Soto WindMaster 4 Flex

[Jeff McWilliams]

I went hiking with ChatGPT

It left all navigation to me

I was feeling distressed

‘Cause my ChatGPS

Accessed maps from 1923.

This one made me laugh, and I immediately was reminded of the NAD27 datum.  :-)

 

[W I S N E R !]

So what does a limerick weigh?

There’s one in my pack yet it’s hard to say.

But since this is Backpacking Light

and spreadsheets tell us what’s right,

I’ll leave the poetry out today.

 

 

 

[David Gardner]

A Snow Leopard stole a new stove
Being held in an Ocelot trove
He got in a spat
With a big Bobcat
Who gave him the old heave ho.

 

And, with apologies:

There once was a boy from Not-tuckett
Whose camp stove fell into a bucket
His limericks were bad
(Not a creative lad)
He hopes Jon Fong won’t just chuck it!

[BlackHatGuy]

I’m digging a cathole to poo
The cathole’s for me, folks, not you
It’s six inches deep
My poo for to keep
Then I wipe with a stick, and I’m through!

At least, almost through I should say
Since I have to cover this bug buffet
First I water it down
Then stir all around
Add dirt, then get on with my day…

[Jon Fong / Flat Cat Gear]

The end of the contest is near
For a prototype that I hold so dear
A winner selected
The others rejected
And for one, they can celebrate with a beer

 

Just a reminder, there are only a few days left to enter the contest.  Best wishes!

[Terran Terran]

To make it clear

i don’t drink beer

now my rhymes you’ve seen

not to be mean

just give me the screen

forgive the abuse

i really have no use

not for it

as I have my kit

I’m sure it’s nice

give it to someone who’ll use it twice

20, 20, 24 hours to go, I want to be sedated
This silly contest just might be, a bit over-rated
Design for the Soto
But only one proto
These poems are somewhat related

[Jon Fong / Flat Cat Gear]

And the winner is……….

Jerry Adams.  PM me your mailing address and the Soto protoype windscreen can go out this week.

Thanks to everyone for entering the contest; it’s been fun and intersting.

 

Jon

[Greg Pehrson]

Congrats are in order for Jerry!

On BPL he’s as sweet as a berry

He hikes in the rain

And never complains

When he’s near what can one be but merry?

CONGRATULATIONS, JERRY!!!

And the winner is……….Jerry Adams

Proof that one should always read the bathroom wall :)

[Jon Fong / Flat Cat Gear]

Jerry,

Read your PM!  send me your mail address so I can ship the prototype out to you.

[Jerry Adams]

just got back from trip.  Sent you my info.

Thanks a lot Jon!

I’ll report back how well it works when I’ve used it

[Jerry Adams]

just received it in the mail.  Thanks Jon.  I’ll try it out within a few weeks.

Nice workmanship.  Nice design.

[Jerry Adams]

and now I tried it, thanks for sending me this

nice workmanship – laser cut titanium?  spot welded

it worked as advertised.  A little fiddly to figure out how to install it the first time, but the second time easier.

I have this idea about comparing this to a couple other windscreens.  Your design is the smallest possible of just the burner head, so it should weigh the least.
