Washington in my native New Hampshire in winter, burning aforementioned number of calories and getting them from freeze dried mac + cheese and a nice stick of butter. YUM.<br /> My stove actually needed a couple tablespoons of raw fuel lit under the main tank to give it pressure. ( think not quite exploding yet) you needed to have the burner turned on or you got a real explosion! <br /> SOUNDS hairy but that little stove kept us alive and warm under crazy wind and cold, never fail.<br /> Now the couch is more my style I am afraid, but I would still go if someone else handled the logistics and put up the tent.<br /> I can bring the stove, still have it.Dog Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15376192910646365366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7684843.post-36527540199511606672015-04-12T15:25:45.258-04:002015-04-12T15:25:45.258-04:00I've no experience with the Svea, but I do hav...I've no experience with the Svea, but I do have good memories of Primus stoves. The most interesting of which was from the time I was living in the North of Norway. Late evening, I answered the door to a young conscript of the Norwegian army, holding the pump assembly and asking if I had a small spanner. I did indeed and helped him replace the pump gasket. The temperature outside was dipping towards minus 40 and presumably a good deal colder up in the Mountains where they were camped.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02814236966431915733noreply@blogger.com
