Tourist bicycle. Selection rules

Until quite recently, tourists could not have dreamed of such equipment as now. Modern light sleeping bags they were replaced by heavy blankets, under which it was almost impossible to warm up, membrane waterproof jackets - heavy raincoats, and light tourist vessels - aluminum cauldrons. Fortunately, today much has changed, and the choice of tourist clothing, shoes, dishes and other equipment has significantly expanded. Of course, for some bowler tourist is not quite affordable in terms of prices, but it's only a matter of time, most importantly, to have a choice.

Choosing a tourist bowler, you should pay attention to such characteristics as its weight, reliability and volume. If, for example, you plan to travel by jeep or quad, and the weight of luggage is not important for you, then do not focus on the weight of the bowler and overpay for this money, because the lighter the tourist's kettle, the more expensive it is. However, if walking trips are planned, make sure that your dishes are as light as possible. Modern tourist shops offer excellent sets of dishes made of anodized aluminum, consisting of a bowler and a lid-pan with non-stick coating. The frying pan and the bowler are equipped with folding handles.

Second, what should I look for when choosing a tourist bowler, this is for its size. It is worth bearing in mind that food on the nature, firstly, quickly enough Spoils, and secondly, it has nowhere to store, so you need to cook just as much as you or with your company can eat at a time. It is on the basis of this and you should choose a tourist bowler: cast iron, if you plan to travel by any transport, and from anodized aluminum, stainless steel or ordinary aluminum, if you prefer hiking. When calculating the necessary amount of the kettle, also try not to forget that it will not be filled with food to the very top, since there is a need for a boil.

An important characteristic of the kettle is its reliability and ease of use. Therefore, when buying a tourist bowler, you should pay attention to the fact that it was not damaged anywhere, and the handles are securely attached to it.

For cooking on gas cylinders with burners, a bowler hat with an anodized aluminum radiator is perfect. Any food in it is prepared faster, and gas Is spent less. This is due to the fact that the radiator does not allow the fire to go beyond the bottom of the pot and also prevents its cooling by the wind, which is so characteristic of the mountain climate.

If you plan to cook food at the stake, then a tourist bowler with a tripod must be present in your backpack. Of course, you can build a device for hanging the pot and from improvised materials, such as wood, but it is much more convenient to use a tripod, especially since it weighs very little. In addition, the tripod is easily assembled and disassembled, and the height of the bowl suspension is regulated by a special chain.
