as you can see from this photo i'm a stove enthusiast..



at home and on camping trips i've tried out just about ever sort of stove that will burn something.



kerosene..which is nasty and greasy but burns hot and go's a long way..



too alcohol which burns sweet,is easy to get and use but does not burn as hot as..



white gas or Coleman fuel which is great in cold weather,lots of stoves are made that burn it and gallon cans are easy to find.




or you could get carts of canned Gaz of some sort which are very easy to light,burn and store but like in this photo loose power in cold weather..i had to spoon warm water into the stove base to get enough heat to get water to a rolling boil..
i have a wood burning Zip Stove but i'll stop here,you get the idea.it's not the stove as much as what kind of fuel you expect to have avalable,if any past what you are able to carry with you. %90 of the stoves made are just fine with a few "dogs" out there with bad pumps or flimsy parts but for the most part any one will work..a survival stove in my view is one that will go into a pack or some sort,large or small, and be forgot until it's pulled out and fired up to save your skin..a Gaz might be best here..camping--i would say a Coleman fuel stove of any kind that strikes your fancy.they make stoves for mountain climbers to family outings..the best place for details on stoves is at Classic Camp Stoves where you will find a wealth of information and photos of stoves in use from the highlands of Scotland to..well my Midwest backyard..
