Imagine a long, dank pre-dawn to post-dusk day of crawling up an exposed mountainside, trudging through snow and slop, and battling relentless horizontal sleet and snow head-on. If you still have your wits about you by the end of the journey, all you’ll want to do is replenish the thousands upon thousands of calories lost on the path behind you. But that same fierce wind and precip keep snuffing the flame on your backpacking stove. A hungry night of tossing and turning awaits.
