A ranger in Yosemite saw my old camp stove and said 'That thing's a survivor'.
It was a Coleman from 1998 that my dad gave me, and he told me a story about fixing the same model with a paperclip in a storm. Anyone else have gear that's older than they are?

Ever read about that guy who still uses his grandfather's WW2 mess kit? It was a story in an old camping magazine. The aluminum was worn thin in spots, but he said it boiled water faster than anything new. That kind of history in an object is pretty special.
