I am looking for a stove that is small, lightweight and boils water quickly. It needs to be easy to use and fit in a kayak. It will be used on rivers in Utah, Colorado, Wyoming and Montana, so altitude, the possibility of getting wet and wind (which I seem to attract) are all concerns. The Jet Boil, MSR Pocket Rocket and and MSR Reactor all seem like good choices.
