The History of the Triad Stove
From Brian Vargo:
“In 2002, alcohol stoves required separate pot stands, and no stoves were made from titanium. I wanted to create something lightweight, durable, and compact. By integrating legs into a simple titanium design, the Triad became the first of its kind and the product that launched Vargo Outdoors.”
