Welcome! We do indeed have many experienced and helpful members who will be glad to answer most, if not all, your questions. The more details you give about your situation, the more specific the answers can get. For example, a wood-burning backpack stove you mentioned wanting is excellent for large swaths of the eastern, southern and midwestern USA, but is not very adaptable for most of the western states.

Anyway, feel free to ask. We'll do our best to answer.
