The Ultimate Base Camp Kit is the Kelly Kettle for families and groups. Its 1.6-litre stainless steel kettle boils about six cups at once, using nothing but twigs, pine cones, bark or dry grass, and the kit gives you everything you need to cook as well.
Light a small fire in the base, sit the kettle on top and the hollow water jacket heats the water fast, even in wind and rain. Use the pot support over the chimney to cook noodles or soup while the water boils. Once it's done, swap the kettle for the hobo stove and keep cooking over the fire base. The pot support also works under the fire base to stop the ground getting scorched.
