What what temp range do y’all bring a wood stove for camp?

[Fever Buck]

Hey everyone, a continuation of my earlier wall tent post:

What temp range do y'all lug the wood stove to camp? I’ll be hunting 1st rifle (Oct 15-19) in CO. The temps look like it’ll be lows of high 30s/low 40s and highs of mid 50s during the day. No snow or rain on the forecast yet (I know that can rapidly change) so I’m curious if I shouldn’t just bring my buddy heater instead of my wood stove to save weight and space in the truck. I’ll be heating a 10x14 Springbar. I’ve never used a wall tent and wood stove before so it’s going to be a bit of a learning curve for me. Would love to hear y’all’s thoughts.

*Forgot to add: the camp spots we have picked out will be right at the 9.8k feet range.

Thanks!

Okay, looks like weather data is for 7k feet. We’ll be about 2.5-3k feet higher. So temp should be closer to low 30s up to high 40s throughout the trip if I drop the range about 10°F for elevation gain.

I don't bring the stove until it gets into the mid-low 20s, maybe even teens. 30s/40s you're going to be roasting in that tent. I don;t think you'll need a stove or a buddy heater, personally.

Good insight. Thank you.

I'll also add that it is pretty personal. I am an extremely warm sleeper. You might sleep colder than me. If in doubt, better to have it and not need it.

Better to be looking at it, than looking for it in my opinion

I'd bring it. Better to have it and not need it, then not have it and need it.
If you get cold, wet, etc it sure would be nice to be able to knock that chill out of your body. Dry wet clothes, etc.

Makes sense. Thanks.
