A Few Hiking/Gear Pics (SH-E Pic Heavy)

[Guyon]

Took a hike down in Alabama this weekend on a beautiful Saturday morning.

Took along the polished spine SH-E, which as you can see from the pic, was still pristine.

The SH-E finally saw some action. Here was its very first blows. As always, I dedicate such pics/video to Bravado.



Here are a couple of SH-E post-action photos.

As you can see, I also took out the AD 2007 SE, which saw its first cutting as well. Bravado gets two for one in this thread.

And I took and tested the MSR Pocket Rocket and titanium Titan Kettle out-of-doors.

One thing this trip taught me is the need for a windscreen. When I used my body and handkerchief as a make-shift windscreen, the boiling action improved considerably. All my flame was getting blown to one side of the mug. Going to pick up some thin aluminium sheeting to make a windscreen this week.

Enjoyed a nice hot chocolate pick-me-up. No, those aren't deer droppings. They're marshmellows. Or as my son calls them, smarshmellows.

One more SH-E pic for the road.

Hey, I forgot to mention that I flushed a covey of quail. 7 or 8 birds by my count. Those are hard to find down that way these days.

Cool pics, thanks! :thumbup:

It was a great weekend down this way. Glad you had fun.

That's a nice looking stove, too.

 

[Guyon]

That's a nice looking stove, too.

Combo is still on sale.

The stove alone normally runs $40. For $18 more, you get a titanium mug/cookpot.

I snagged it with a 20%-off-one-item coupon. Even better. :thumbup:

The vid was captured on my tiny Nikon CoolPics digital camera. Quality settings might have been better, but I'm sure it did an okay job of making Bravado cringe.

Nice stuff Guyon. How does it chop as compared to the Wielers?

That's a nice little piece of kit. I'm quite partial to the SH-E and kettle.
