Trangia stove. i have used alc for the past year and have tried different stoves. I think the trangia might suit me better because I would be able to snuff it and save the fuel. Also I hear that the trangia is a fuel miser of sorts.
Sierra Designs Oragami 2 UL. I have never seen one of these except during online research. I have been using a golite poncho tarp and a homemade bivy for the past year. Sometimes I use the poncho tarp with an OR Advanced bivy in the winter when it is really cold. Things have been dry and gone good so far, but I need more space - my dog comes in with me when it rains and he pushes on me all night long. He is a 'bed' hog. I want something with some versatility and 4 season capability for as little weight as possible. I would go with an 8x10, but they cost too much for what they are - I don't have sewing time right now - and I want some solid 360* wind protection for a change. I lookes at the MSR twim peaks, but it costs too much and is limited on versatility.
Another thing is that I need a floorless design to accomodate the dog. His claws poke holes in tent floors- so whats the use. http://www.sierradesigns.com/tarps.display.php?id=526
Thanks in advance -charlie
