Interesting using a propane tank for a small wood burner !
You're right though , the mountain men would build a fire , dig a trench , fill it with hot ashes, and cover with dirt to sleep on..

That looks like a good time. I just got a Mr Buddy heater to try winter camping.

Is the material flame retardant?
Keith The pop up ice shack is not flame retardant. I just got done ordering a fire retardant blanket which I will use to cover the window and cut a circle hole in it for my short triple wall pipe heat protector. The triple wall has air space between the outside two pipes. Air can move up and thru to the outside. I tried it tonite. The main chimney pipe was way too hot to touch. The outside pipe was cool enough where I could place my hand on it and leave it for a while. I will also have part of the blanket hanging between the stove and the pop up wall under the window. Although it will be 18" to 24" away. Should be good with the welding blanket. I am looking forward to using it !!!
