If I were to hike in the woods where there's no WIFI, will the Watch still count my steps, will the compass and elevation app work, will the ECG app work? Need to know before I buy one.

Yes all the things you mentioned will work without wifi because when it's in range with the phone the watch does all it's talking through bluetooth to the phone and the ECG uses the sensors built into the watch.I go hiking and I leave my phone at home and when I return home the watch uploads all the fitness data to the health app in the phone via bluetooth.
Apple Watch "with GPS only" - will health apps function without connectivity?
