[philmont] Woodfired Back Country Waterheaters

1. My records indicate Sawmill & Cyphers Mine as the only two sites with wood stoked water heaters.

This kind of information was previously supplied in a table at the back of the "Treks" book along with other facilities. If deemed valuable I could probably re-create it without too much trouble as PhilSearch's database contains this information and displays it as part of the Camp data.

2. They work quite well.

3. I actually don't remember if we gathered the wood or not, I suspect that you would be asked to bring some deadfall with you.

4. Can't speak for time, perhaps a lurking staffer could?

I heard that some of the back country showers have wood-fired water heaters if you want hot water. I have a few questions:

1. Where are they?
2. How well do they work?
3. Do the crews supply the wood?
4. Does it take long to heat the water?
etc.?
etc.?
