Premium camp skillet for mega mountain meals
We love a camp skillet. Honestly, a camp with a frying pan just ups the camp cooking game no end – we can’t count the times we’ve whipped up a mega meal that friends can’t believe has been made entirely on a camp stove. But the downside of many camp frying pans is that they just aren’t up to scratch. You get hot spots and cool spots, leading to semi-charred but also somehow still raw sausages. Luckily, the MSR Alpine Fry Pan is one serious bit of kit. The stainless-steel pan has a heat-spreading aluminium disc welded to the bottom, just like you get with high-end cookware. That means an even heat, so that whatever you fry is perfectly cooked. Fillet steaks on a mountain, anyone?

A staple of multiple expeditions for more than 50 years, MSR gear is trusted by climbers, mountaineers, explorers and researchers in some of the highest and coldest places on earth. The brand has earned an enviable reputation for turning out reliable, durable, high-performance kit – and has come a long way since its founding by Seattle engineer and lifelong mountaineer Larry Penberthy in 1969. Back then, MSR – or Mountain Safety Research, to use its full moniker – was solely focused on improving the safety of climbing equipment. Why? Because Larry knew that better equipment meant greater adventures.
Since then, the product range has grown hugely, but the core ethos remains the same. That’s why MSR gear is characterised by its user-led design that prioritises functionality, simplicity and reliability, wherever you roam in the great outdoors – whether you’re on a weekend camping trip, or perched on a portaledge 2,000ft up one of the world’s big walls.
