I love getting outdoors, be it a day hike up a local mountain or a weekend trip with good friends. Some people enjoy protein bars, power bars, a peanut butter and jelly sandwich when they are hungry. However if you want to save space, travel light, and have quick warm meal then you want to carry a JetBoil Flash. What sets a JetBoil Flash apart from most backpacking stoves?
1) Its compact and light weight - It takes up very little space in a day pack or large backpacking ruck.
2) It is simple to use - all you need is water and your fuel source. Unlike some other stoves this one comes with a built in ignition, which gives you one less thing to worry about.
3) Price - Considering the importance of having a good warm meal, the price point of $99.95 is a great deal.

Coming in at only 14 ounces, it only takes about 2.5 minutes to boil two cups of water. Those two cups of water are perfect for almost any freeze dried meal you can buy for about $4. This is what makes the JetBoil great, the ability to feed 4 people in around 10 minutes with only one unit if your in the mountains and on the move. On the other hand you can bring along a JetBoil to your next kids soccer game and make some hot cocoa on a cool fall afternoon. The JetBoil is a great piece of gear for a wide range of activities and well worth the price for such a convenience.
