Help me kit this out.
I am really interested in this stove for multi day ski tours. What do I need to kit this out properly? Looking for advice on the right accessories and cookware that will work well but keep it fairly minimal.

This is a great stove. You'll need a few things to fully trick it out. 1) A fuel bottle. The 1L is a lot of fuel, you can do something like 20 person-days with one. 2) A trillium stove base. This aluminum platform replaces (or adds to) the flimsy heat reflector, and is a must for cooking on snow 3) A pot. My favorite for groups of 1-3 is the 2L pot in the MSR Titan 2 pot set (it used to be sold alone) Any 2L with a similar aspect ratio will do. They are light, indestructible, heat quickly, and fit the stove inside nicely. Check out evernew as well. 4) A fry pan (optional). The Banks Fry-Bake is pretty awesome for longer trips, but overkill for shorter ones. Any aluminum nonstick with a folding handle will give you lots of options. I'd also recommend finding some online forums with tips, you can get pretty tricky with this stove, (how to depressurize for lower temps, or the Tower of Power for baking etc.) which will make your food better. Happy cooking!
