I have heated with pine and aspen(that is all we got)with fairly small stoves.

Of course the stove needs to be pretty tight.


I have never heard of or used a stove that would keep a tent warm all night on one charge of western softwood. Coal might be different, but my stove, even though it's advertised as having a coal grate doesn't burn it work a chit.if there is none out there I am all ears.
