Running an iso-butane / canister stove at high-altitude (MSR SuperFly)

I have heard many times that canister stoves don't run well at high-altitude. I recorded this video to show what one looks like when running at over 9,000ft in elevation. It will consume more fuel to cook with, which can make hauling fuel canisters inefficient, but the performance of the stove appears to be good. The stove used was an MSR SuperFly with an MSR ISO-Pro canister. The outside air temperature was about 40 deg F.

Good video. Nothing better than proof, in my opinion. I love my Superfly.
