Fires ( 02:24:16 ThuFeb 28 2008 ) Interact Reply Quote Report To Mod Last Posts Ignore User Global Ignore Whisper I know fire is a serious subject in California, so I want to make sure I am absolutely certain about when it is ok and not ok to have any kind of fires. Obviously during dry times in mid and late summer, no open fires are allowed, but are burn barrels allowed all year? When are open fires usually prohibited? I only ask because fire would be (if permissible) my main source of cooking and late night entertainment. Who doesn't love a campfire while camping? Safety for the forest is, of course, my main concern here. Thank you very much.

Not even chain saws and ATVs running in the woods. Smoking only in an enclosed vehicle. Get ready for a cold camp.

I would plan on pressured gas for cooking during summer months unless you are in an established campground where you can still use campfires.

That is SO much more conveinient than driving out of my way and then running the risk of no-one there or having some enviro-punk refusing to issue me a fire permit...(Yeah, that happened to me)...Tom
