I haven't put it on a scale yet, but I think the stove body weight about a pound or so, and
the pipe about the same. - so as it is it probably weighs something between 2 and 3 pounds.
Add that to about let's see 23 + 13 + 3 ounces == 39 oz for the shangri-la 3 so I figure it'll be 6 or 7 pounds for a workable hot tent rig, which I'm pretty happy with.

Oh, I see you're wondering about the pipe. I'll post a picture later but this is a rollup stainless
steel pipe from titanium goat (our sponsor) it's actually a flat piece of stainless steel shim stock
with some wire rings. if I roll it out flat, I can curve it up lengthwise to form a 6 foot pipe. When I
want to pack it, I roll it up in the short dimension and it forms a 12" long tube, which fits inside my
stove (I did my homework before I decided on my firebox length). so the thing I have to pack
is simply a 6 inch by 12 inch tube.

Will I carry it? heck yah. my winter kit ain't exactly light weight. Will I trade 3 pounds for the ability to dry clothing and sleeping bags? heck yeah. As it is the stove and hex tent will go onto my giant heavy brio pack just fine thanks <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

As for swamp donkey meat? - that's usually brought out on a packframe, or an ATV, or a combination of both <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
