I just did five days on a bear trip and brought my stove just in case. It turned out to be worth it when we were rained and snowed in the first day. We were on a ridge with very limited camp site options. I pitched my shelter over one of the few semi flat areas that was half grass and half bare dirt. After a day of playing cards next to the stove the dirt areas were turned into powder. When I blew my nose the next day it looked like a mud slide. I tried to mitigate the problem by installing a pine floor! I thought a small piece of painters drop cloth cut to cover half of the shelter might be an easier and more effective option. I am curious if others have run into similar situations and have found a good solution.
