Why it's different

Light enough to carry. Big enough to share.

At just 9.2 oz, the Backpacker includes a real 1.2 L pot that is large enough to cook meals for two or even three people without weighing down your pack.

Room to cook a real meal.

A 1.2 L pot holds about 5 cups, enough for one-pot pasta, soup, or oatmeal for two or three people, not just boiling water.

Everything you need, right out of the box.

The included strainer lid, pot supports, bowl, and cleaning towel make it easy to boil, cook, strain, and clean without buying extra accessories.

Packs into one compact kit.

The burner, pot supports, towel, and either a 100 g or 230 g fuel canister nest neatly inside the pot for a quiet, space-saving setup.

Lighter. Bigger. More versatile.

Our story

Built by an engineer. Inspired by the trail.

Founder John Peretti spent years engineering award-winning integrated backpacking stove systems before starting Coastal Range Equipment. Along the way, he listened to backpackers, hunters, paddlers, pilots, guides, Scout leaders, and outdoor retailers who wanted gear that was lighter, more versatile, and built to last.

His philosophy is simple: every ounce should earn its place. The result is thoughtfully engineered outdoor gear that removes unnecessary weight without sacrificing the durability, versatility, or performance people depend on wherever adventure takes them.

How much does it weigh?
9.2 oz (260 g) for the cook system: burner, 1.2 L pot, insulating sleeve, lid, and bowl. The click-in pot supports and pack towel are included too.
What fuel does it use, and what packs inside?
Any standard EN417 Lindal-valve screw-on isobutane-propane canister. A 100 g or a full 230 g canister nests inside the pot with the burner and supports, so the whole system travels as one compact unit.
