My personal experience – Every breakfast and evening meals our robust MSR® XGK™ stove’s powerful flame melted snow and ice giving us lifesaving boiled water incredibly fast so we could enjoy a drink and by rehydrating our freeze dried meals – eat…

This was so necessary during the Polar Race, probably the world’s toughest race; – starting from Resolute, Nunavut (74^°43’N and 94°53’W), walking & skiing 648 km to the North Magnetic Pole in 25 days

Just the extreme cold of the Arctic makes a person feel very hungry, add the enormous amount of energy (6500 calories) needed to man hauling our pulks for 12 hours per day for survival this energy needs to be replaced.

MSR’s rugged XGK EX is the ultimate multi-fuel expedition stove, delivering ultra-reliable extreme condition cooking for over 35 years. The EX version builds on the legacy of the original XGK, with enhanced performance and dependability for even the toughest of external conditions, and better multi-fuel burning capabilities than any other stove on the market.It features a flexible fuel line that allows it to pack smaller than ever, as well as stable, retractable legs and pot supports, and a powerful flame that melts snow and boils water incredibly fast. No matter where you’re headed, with an XGK EX stove along, you’ll find fuel to burn and the absolute dependability that has made it the first choice in liquid fuels stoves on expeditions for decades.
