KIHD Deluxe Stick Stove

Leaving fuel canisters at home is one of the more liberating decisions you can make when packing for a backcountry canoe trip, and this stove makes it a practical one.

The KIHD Stick Stove Deluxe runs on whatever wood you find along the way, keeping your pack lighter and your trips longer. The 18-gauge 316 stainless steel panels fit together quickly for setup, and the low square design pushes heat upward toward your pot rather than letting it dissipate outward. A removable access door gives you control over airflow and makes refuelling mid-cook straightforward. When fire bans are in effect, an included extra set of cross straps lets you run gel or ethanol pods instead, so your cooking setup stays functional regardless of conditions.

It packs down to 11 x 11 x 12cm and slips into the included cloth carrying case, taking up minimal space in a canoe pack or portage bag. With a load capacity of 115kg, it's a stable platform for any pot up to 1.5L. Designed by paddlers who trip regularly in Algonquin, this is a stove built around the real demands of Canadian backcountry travel.
