Just a little tip i tried out at weekend, fed up of tripping over my tarp lines i removed some reflective strip from a high viz vest, cut it into strips about 150mm by 6mm and tied one to each guide line. worked a treat, i could even find my camp from a long way off. wish i'd tied one to my honey stove i squashed that flat!!!

again sorry about your stove BUT thats a good tip from you as well. Stoves like that arent bomb proof and can break when you really need it. Makes you think if that happened to me what other stove would i take next time that will be stronger.

Think I'd rather rely on the honey stove or similar than something that only runs on gas or liquid fuel.

If the honey stove gets squashed at least you can either bend it back into shape or bodge something out of it.

I use dayglo orange paracord and glow in the dark tent pegs, but there's a type of paracord with a reflective strip woven into it that's even more effective, especially from a distance.

Can't get the link to work, sorry.
