Would 2M only suffice for the "email/packet" end of

HF Mobile is not very reliable. I operate HF mobile voice, primarily
on the County Hunter's net. The bend in a road is sometimes enough to
drop from readable to unreadable. I realize that in digital modes,
the signal gets through when voice doesn't, but there will be times
when you can't reach that one place you desire to reach at that time.

Once you settle down, changing bands and frequencies may not be much
of a problem, especially if you non-mobile antennas at your campsite.

Good luck
