How does the MTP Table attach to a tree?

The table includes a 5-foot cam buckle strap that wraps around virtually any tree trunk. Pull, cinch, done — setup takes under 60 seconds. No tools required.

Which fuel canisters are compatible with the MTP Table?

The integrated fuel canister slot fits standard 3.5 oz, 8 oz, and 16 oz canisters from MSR, Jetboil, GSI, and Snow Peak. If your canister feels snug, it's designed that way — snug means stable on the trail.

How does the MTP Table compare to the Helinox Table One?

The MTP Table weighs 10 oz vs 1 lb 12 oz for the Helinox, costs $70 vs $130+, and includes a tree-mount system the Helinox lacks. Trade-off: Helinox offers a larger surface area and freestanding legs.

Is this table stable enough for a pot of boiling water?

Yes. The 5052 aluminum construction supports 45 lbs — more than enough for a double-burner setup, a full cook pot, and a water filter. Strap it snugly to a tree with 3–4 inches of diameter or more for maximum stability.

Can the MTP Table be used above treeline?

The tree-mount system requires a tree or solid post. For alpine camping above treeline, it can be used on a tent pole or large boulder edge. A freestanding version is in development.

How does the MTP Table pack?

It folds completely flat to 0.25 inches thick — about the width of a credit card edge. It slides alongside gear or into a laptop sleeve compartment and fits any pack.

What does patent pending mean for my purchase?

The tree-mount design and integrated fuel canister slot combination is an original MT Provisions innovation currently being protected under U.S. patent law. This design is unique to MT Provisions.

The MTP Backcountry Cooking & Utility Table is a 10 oz, tree-mount aluminum camp table built for backpackers who refuse to cook in the dirt. It straps to virtually any tree in under 60 seconds using the included 5-foot cam buckle strap, giving you a stable cooking surface on any trail.

An integrated fuel canister slot fits standard 3.5 oz, 8 oz, and 16 oz canisters from MSR, Jetboil, GSI, and Snow Peak — your stove sits level so you can focus on the meal, not balancing gear on rocks. It folds flat and slides into your pack alongside your gear without taking up a slot.

Built from 5052 aluminum (a corrosion-resistant alloy widely used in marine applications) — a stable surface for your stove, cook kit, and water filter. Ultralight, made in the USA, patent pending.

What's included with my purchase?

The table, plus a 5-foot cam buckle strap ($16.95 value) — everything you need for your first trip.

Which stoves are compatible?

The integrated fuel canister slot is built for standalone canister stoves — like the MSR PocketRocket — where the stove screws directly onto the canister. It fits standard 3.5, 8, and 16 oz canisters from MSR, Jetboil, GSI, and Snow Peak. If you're running a Jetboil integrated cooking system, the canister slot won't fit the unit itself — but the table surface works perfectly as a flat, stable platform. Just set it on top and cook as normal.

Does the table fold up small enough to fit in my backpack?

Yes — it folds flat and slides right into your backpack alongside the rest of your gear.

Where is the table made?

Made in the USA — manufactured in Iowa using 100% solar-powered production.

What is the table made of?

5052 aluminum — a corrosion-resistant alloy widely used in marine applications. Light, but built to hold real weight.

What can I do with a second strap?

Mainly, it works as a gear rail — loop it around the tree above the table to hang a water filter, headlamp, or wet gear instead of setting it in the dirt. It can also help secure other gear around camp. The Camp Kitchen Bundle includes a free extra strap with a second table, making it the most cost-effective way to add one.
