BRS-3000T Titanium Ultralight Stove Review
Quick description, review, and demo of the BRS 3000t titanium hiking stove. At 25g, it's one of the lightest canister stoves available and it works very well. One thing to note, is that the diameter of the support arms is only 75mm or about 3". This poses a particular problem for heat exchanger pots like the OilCamp XTS. The ring opening on the bottom is just bearly small enough to balance on the stove...yes, it works, but bearly, so be careful. Any flat bottomed cookware works just fine, including very small titanium mugs like the Toaks 450ml Cup. It's as efficient as any of these stoves, requiring only 5g of fuel or so to get a 2 cup boil.
Turner's Gap to Rocky Run Shelter
Video of a very quick section hike in and around Turner’s Gap from Dahlgren Backpackers Campground to Rocky Run Shelter and up and back from the Washington Monument parking lot, about 8.1 miles. Overnight was at the Dahlgren Backpackers Campground. Very nice, with well water at the restroom that has heated showers and there is also a winter/frost free spigot just up the service road. We ate at the Old South Mountain Inn in Boonsboro. Excellent Sunday morning brunch! http://oldsouthmountaininn.com/ The owls were wicked noisy that night and there were lots of creepy night noises. Beware of the Yeti!

Appalachian Trail - Harpers Ferry to Ed Garvey Shelter
Video of my hike from Harpers Ferry up the Appalachian Trail to Ed Garvey Shelter. Overnight parking was easy at the main visitors center for Harpers Ferry and they have a free bus that takes you downtown.
Nice overnight hike. Beware, water at the shelter is almost a half mile down hill. There were stink bugs infesting the shelter, stinky little buggers they are. Also, be on the lookout for the Yeti.
