Coastal Range Equipment

Excited for our first Outdoor Retailer!

Nothing better than having a hot drink while you watch the world fly by as the sun sets.

It's been a great week introducing The Backpacker and talking with pilots, builders, campers, and outdoor enthusiasts about a simple idea: every ounce should earn its place.

The Coastal Range Backpacker was designed for people who care about every ounce they carry:

9.2 oz complete cooking system
1.2 L pot that comfortably cooks for 2–3
Boils 0.5 L of water in 2.5 minutes
Packs small enough to disappear behind the seat
If you’re exploring the Fly-In Market today, stop by and see it for yourself.

☕ We’ll have fresh coffee brewing throughout the morning. Pick up the stove, see how everything nests together, and ask us anything.

John, the engineer behind The Backpacker, will be at the booth all day. If you’re curious about why it weighs just 9.2 oz, want to hear the story behind its design, or simply want to talk airplanes, camping, and good gear, come say hello.

To everyone who’s stopped by this week, thank you. Hearing your stories, talking airplanes and camping, and watching people discover The Backpacker has been the highlight of our first AirVenture. If today is your first day at the show, we hope you’ll stop in and say hello.

Every ounce is useful load. This stove weighs just 9.2 oz.

If you're camping under the wing at Oshkosh this week, stop by and see the Coastal Range Backpacker. We are an ultralight camping stove built for pilots who count every ounce. It packs neatly behind the seat, boils 0.5 L of water in about 2.5 minutes, and its generous 1.2 L pot comfortably cooks for 2–3 people back at camp.

Designed by John Peretti, former head of R&D for a leading backpacking stove company.

☕ We'll have fresh coffee brewing at the booth each morning, so come say hello, warm up, and check out the stove in person.

We've been a little quiet on here getting all of our Kickstarter orders out the door and gearing up for the summer camping season, so we wanted to share some updates!

We're hitting the road this summer (both figuratively and literally) for a variety of shows, and wanted to test out our booth setup while we still have time to fix anything we catch!

We'll share more updates about what we've been up to and what we're working on in the coming days/weeks
