Thanks Dreadlocks. I've heard the same, but was given a little optimism by Victorian's first hand account of usage at altitude: "Altitude compensation: Usually these type of heaters need a pricey and complicated accessory kit to compensate for high altitudes. The planar works perfect in...

Hi Victorian. I'm interested in the portable diesel heater. Use will be tent, truck topper, and off-grid cabin. 7400-10,000 ft of elevation. What is the size of the tank that comes packaged w/ the portable heater? I've been debating between this and the AT portable heater. Big differences...

We've had some crazy moisture recently here in the Colorado Springs area. I'm hoping most of the state has been getting similar precip and we can actually have regular fires for the rest of the year. This is the go to site for fire restriction info in CO...

I'm in Colorado, too. Most summers we can no longer have open fires. Got the Outland Bowl fire pit. Has worked well. Much better than nothing, can cook smores over it, and can turn off without dousing, etc. Little 5lb cylinder is convenient, but definitely a weekender. Miss the campfire smell...

Kodiak 10x10 Deluxe has been good for me. Did a family trip to Yosemite with it, as well as about 4 nights in my pasture for testing/fun. Pros? Spacious. Awesome, consistent roof height. Good ventilation. Quick to set up. Good organization options. Downsides? Super heavy. Noisy/flappy in...

I've been lusting after one for years, but haven't really been able to justify the expense. For me, it would be great for my tiny cabin, truck topper, or Kodiak tent... http://store.adventuretrailers.com/categories/HEATER/

I was thinking the same thing. Heavy winds before this pic was taken.

Just picked up a Kodiak 10x10 recently and the stake loops are metal... KodiakTent Stake Loops by Brad Baker, on Flickr

I picked up a Kodiak Canvas 10x10 recently on sale at Cabelas. It is ridiculously heavy (68 pounds), but the poles, tent body, and stakes can be split up for easier carrying. I put it up in my pasture about 10 days ago, then learned I had to have heart surgery (which was outpatient and went...

Thanks for the heads up. I checked with BrickSeek and they are stocked all over the Colorado area. http://brickseek.com/walmart-inventory-checker/ I picked at 52qt cooler up at the Lone Tree Walmart. I already have a 26qt cooler, which has served me well. baker

Ordered another variant of the cheapo chinese wood burner from Amazon. Slightly improved fuel feeding, similar to the SoloStove. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01KJHPOL8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Here is a pic of all three (OUSPOTS, SoloStove Campfire, and Lixada)...

Not sure if this will meet your needs, but I bought this 25 gallon Husky rolling tool box to transport ski boots from my house to my condo in the back of truck. I had back surgery recently and got tired of trying to lug around 4 pair of ski boots (2 kids, 2 adults) in a box...

Actually, that little bowl is supposedly the alcohol bowl. Will have to try a burn with that next. edit: Tried burning alcohol in the stove and bowl with fairly unimpressive results. 20oz of water just started to boil when a full bowl of alcohol burnt out...

Just received this stove in the mail and gave it a try. Compact, light, and functional. Pretty neat. It seemed to go into the gassifier stage for me and boiled 20 ounces of water pretty quickly. For $14, I'd say it is a steal compared to my Solo Stove! Is that little bowl for catching ashes? If...

I have a couple different wood-burning stoves. A Kelly Kettle, which is mostly limited to water boiling, and a Solo Stove Campfire, which is a bit more versatile (and easier to use). I like the concept of a safe contained wood fire, with no need to bring fuel, endless fuel (assuming your are...

Yeah, my Wrangler had almost nothing for storage space. With my Tundra, I feel like I'm at the other end of the spectrum.

Profile says UZJ100, Toyota Landcruiser. Bigger than a Wrangler, but still a ton of stuff. Very prepared. :-)

Nice, simple, burly design. If the 4 bike version was in stock, I'd be tempted. Thanks for the link...

73's available right now. 7 left... Out of stock already...12 minutes later. Dang, these things are in high demand.

Looking online, I couldn't find any listed in my area (near Denver and Colorado Springs). I was at our local store in Monument last week and decided to go physically look. There was one and only one on the shelf...which I bought.
