The first few years we lived in the mountains, we heated with a wood buck stove only. I will agree it is much cheaper, but it was a pain in the neck. My dh had to get up at 3 in the morning, to keep the stove going all day. And of course, it burned out while we were at work. The wood was messy and dirty and the house was never comfortable. Always too hot or freezing and the bath rooms were never warm enough.
