MSR says

Designed for solo backpackers who want to keep the menu options open, the Trail Lite Solo Cook Set delivers the packing convenience of an all-in-one set. Perfect for pasta, soup and other one-pot meals, this light and compact set will keep you well-fed at camp, and moving quickly on the trail.

Our Verdict

The MSR Trail Lite Solo has been designed to fit easily in backpacking and hiking rucksacks. To achieve this they have created a nesting design, where the bowl and mug fit neatly inside the pot, with enough room left in the mug for foldable utensils or a small stove like the Pocket Rocket or Micro Rocket.

The pot is not huge but at 1.3 litres it is just enough for the solo backpacker to achieve simple meals with minimal weight. The locking pot handle folds back neatly over the lid once your finished, keeping everything neatly together.
