If fuel is your issue, you may want to take a look at the Sierra Zip stove. It burns twigs and sticks and is safer and more efficient than an open fire.

Some campgrounds do not consider it a stove however, and may not allow it's use, but it doesn't sound like you have that issue to deal with.
Love it Greg,my kind of stove! Kind of like a rocket stove. LOVE the fuel!

Been wanting to buy one of them for 15 years. And 15 years ago they only cost $25 plus shipping. They are hotter than a alcohol stove and burn sticks and charcoal. You could drink tea and coffee every day and never buy fuel. And when you are on the trail drinking creek water it is best to boil it for tea, coffee, hot chocolate, or herbal tea.
