My friend Dwight has been sequestered in his laboratory for the last two years working on his brainchild, Jetboil. I couldn't stop thinking about it on our last camping trip, especially while unpacking, setting up, pumping, priming, lighting, and tweaking the whisper stove, accessories and cookware. A Jetboil or two would have been all we needed.

That's not to say it's only duty will be in the backwoods. One of these would make the nearly yearly drive to Wyoming more enjoyable, or at least more hot-drink enjoyable. Hitting the road at the crack of dawn you are faced with braving truck stop coffee, or waiting an hour or two for fresh coffee. I could make a mean cup of Cowboy coffee with the Jetboil instead.

Be sure to check out all of the wonderful Jetboil recipes, especially the Jet Beans and Franks.
