Mini-Lite Hiking Stool™

 
Only 10˝ ounces -       Hooks to Belt, Pack, Bike -       Pure Hiking Comfort !

(Hiking Stool with standard 16.5" long legs shown above)
   

Ultra Light-Weight and Ultra Strong:

• No melted beer-cans here!  The legs are made of "Marine Alloy 5086 Aluminum" with tensile strength near 50,000 lbs/square-inch.  That's nearly the strength of steel at 1/3 the weight!   

• And we reinforce each leg exactly where the strength is needed; at the center-pivot of each leg tube!  The imports don't reinforce their legs!

• Our seat is made of 3-layers of special nylon & polyester fabric:  Each layer is oriented 120 degrees apart so there is no "bias stretch".  Then the three layers are fused together with a 10,000 watt electric field.  The result is an incredibly strong, comfortable and light-weight assembly.  

• Finally, the seat attachment points are folded and fused 6 layers thick!  

• You won't find another stool that is made as light and strong as the Mini-Lite Hiking Stool™.

Hooks to your Belt:

The Hiking Stool's special "hook-loop" closure system is made long for easy attachment to your your belt or belt-loop.  Just peel the "hook-loop" open about 5 inches, slip it around your belt or belt-loop and reseal.   Experiment with the best position on your belt and you may even forget its there!

Fits in your pack:

The Hiking Stool fits inside most day packs just the way it is.  For smaller packing needs, I have found the the legs can be shortened in length up to 2˝" without serious stability issues.  (I will include information about shortening the legs with each purchase).   

Attaches to your bicycle:

I love bicycle touring and the Hiking Stool makes a great addition to your evening camp.  Use the stool's "hook-loop" system to attach it to the top tube or bike rack.  See how conveniently this rider uses his Hiking Stool  to adjust the load on the panniers.

Pure Hiking Comfort:

Hiking purists may say "hum-bug" about including a stool for their hiking needs, but that's because they have not tried the Mini-Lite!  At just 10˝ ounces, the Mini-Lite hits its stride on long hikes.  It adds a spark of luxury when your body needs it the most.  It works superbly well on the trail, in your camp and during these special hiking needs:   

• Tying boots-   Boot tying is a snap on the Mini-Lite, even with stiff legs.
• Filtering water-   Its never easier to filter water than when you are sitting over the water!

• Cooking meals-   "Mother Earth" will become your cooking table with the Mini-Lite!
