Gear Review: GSI Pinnacle Backpacker Cookware

Video gear review of our favorite backpacking and camping cookware. Lightweight and perfect for the trail.

Atlanta Trails reviews the Pinnacle Backpacker cookware from GSI, a lightweight backpacking set that’s perfect for two people on the trail.

Check out our HD video review of the GSI Pinnacle Backpacker cook set:

The set packs down to 8 by 5 and a half inches and weighs in at a light 28.2 oz – taking up very little space or weight for all it includes:

- A fry pan

- A lid with flip-up handle and built-in strainer holes

- Two cups

- A collapsable heat-proof handle that attaches to both the fry pan and pot

- Two insulated mugs with lids for sipping hot coffee or soup

- A 2 liter pot

- A stuff sack that doubles as a portable sink

The fry pan and 2L pot are both coated with Teflon Radiance technology – a scratch resistant nonstick coating that evenly disperses heat and is safe for use with metal utensils.  The Pinnacle set is specially manufactured for use over backpacking stoves. It’s perfect for everything from quick soups to gourmet trail meals;  and it gets water boiling for our morning coffee in just  3 minutes.  And the set is super easy to wash; we’ve cooked some cheesy dishes in this cookware – and have found with a just a little water, the food slides right off, thanks to the Teflon Radiance coating.

The Pinnacle Backpacker by GSI brings high performance, reliable cooking to the trails.  We’ve found it perfect for everything from simple reheating of soups and boiling water to gourmet on the trail.  It’s high quality, and light weight – and perfect for all our hiking and backpacking adventures on the trails.
