No just start a fire nightly during summer to heat the place and/or cook meals on it. During winter you would want to continue adding wood to heat the place

I uploaded some pictures from my last trip up there. Have some showing the cabin, old mining equipment they used to use, me starting the stove up and just scenery from the area!

Wood

Yeah it just burns a pilot light on the bottom seems to be pretty efficient. Wish I had pictures of it I’ll see if I can dig any up.

Another user listed these for sale. It is a wright iron range co

Haha my family wanted to update the floors but I said leave it gives the place a little character.

Haha won’t be able to unsee that now.

Thank you! It absolutely weighs every bit of that I am sure. It hasn’t been moved since I’ve been alive and likely won’t get moved in my lifetime.

The fridge does run off propane

Biscuits and gravy are definitely a go to meal we cook on it.

Haha pretty close. For coffee and quick things like ramen I use a Coleman propane 2 burner stove.

Oh that’s smart talk about efficiency. I have a solar water heater that is used to heat water at this place.

That is very similar to how this one is so you may be right about the small contact points and no transfer of heat.

It definitely takes some time to get used to cooking on it but once you learn how some things cook much better on it.

This one does have a water reservoir that heats water for us that hangs on the left side. We have to scoop hot water from it and constantly have it full to not ruin the reservoir.

The water heater is on the left hand side. It had a lid and use a pot to scoop hot water out of it

Not sure I think some kind of aluminum type metal that doesn’t get as hot.

Haven’t done that before..they may have in the past but have no idea. Doesn’t have any rust on it though

I will get some pictures uploaded tomorrow! Has a lot of history.

Will check out the sub!

Surprisingly not too hot at all. Usually hang wet towels etc to dry out. Can touch/lean against it without getting burnt at all

Going to have to add this to my recipes!!

Yes it is only used slightly every year and this was after about a weeks worth of use and not cleaned at all. Deep cleaning it could probably use but would be a task probably won’t restore it nor would I really know how to even start

My grandmother taught me some of her skills and recipes

It is used for about a month a year these days while we are on vacation. Everything works as it should

It is also used to heat the place. Definitely puts off a good amount of heat
