What’s the Story Behind the Hexagon?
From Brian Vargo:
“In 2009, a friend gave me a wood-burning stove to try. While I enjoyed it, the assembly was complicated with multiple panels. My idea was to use a hinged system to simplify setup—a risky move since hinges hadn’t been used on stoves due to heat concerns. After extensive testing, the system proved durable, and the Hexagon became one of our top-selling products.”
How Does a Backpacking Wood Stove Work?
Unlike liquid or gas stoves, wood-burning stoves rely on your ability to start a fire. Wet conditions can make this challenging, so learning fire-starting techniques is key. The big advantage? Wood is almost always available, eliminating the need to carry fuel. The Hexagon is designed to be as compact and lightweight as possible, assembling in seconds for ultimate convenience.
