You might want to forget the woodstove idea. Any type of structure in that area will be used by people passing through. If they use it for cooking or heat and have to run for it, they just might leave a fire going with the result of it dropping hot embers out and destroying your property.

I have friends in that part of the country that have a remote line camp on a ranch. Always locked and windows boarded up. Stocked with food and water until the last few years when traffic from across the border started breaking in and using it as a way station. Nothing but problems from that time on.

Preventive measures by you to keep anyone out will most likely antagonize certain people with the likely result of your property being destroyed. Not trying to dissuade you in any way about your property, just passing on information related to me by friends in that part of the country.
