MSR Alpine Stainless Steel Stowaway Camping Pot – 1.1 L, Lightweight & Durable

Overview

The MSR Alpine Stainless Steel Stowaway Camping Pot is built for hikers, campers, and travelers who want reliable cookware that travels as well as they do. Crafted from durable stainless steel, this pot is designed to stand up to rugged use while remaining approachable for beginners. The hinged, easy-lift handle flips over the fitted lid to lock it in place, keeping contents secure during transit and on bumpy trails. With a 1.1-liter (37.2-ounce) capacity and a lightweight profile, it offers a practical balance of size and weight for solo meals or quick stove-top meals in the backcountry.

MSR designed the Stowaway to nest neatly with other sizes, so you can tailor your kit to your trip. The result is a compact, space-saving solution that packs away inside a backpack or suitcase without adding unnecessary bulk. The pot’s stainless steel construction is not only sturdy for everyday use but also easy to clean, resisting scratches and wear after repeated adventures.

Why it fits real-life trips

Whether you’re tackling a weekend hike, a scout camping trip, or a budget-conscious travel itinerary, this pot offers dependable performance without complicating your pack. It excels at cooking simple meals on a single burner, boiling water for dehydrated meals, or warming beverages during a long day on the trail. Its design is meant to be practical, with features that simplify camp life rather than complicate it.

The Stowaway’s space-saving design shines when you’re juggling gear. Nesting compatibility means you can pair it with other sizes (sold separately) to create an adaptable cooking setup that travels light but scales up when needed. A strong, secure lid and a lid-locking hinge add a touch of confidence for moving between campsites or air travel.
