Whats the deal. Are campfires still not allowed in the Sierra's?? I might be heading up to Fordyce and am just wondering. Also does anybody know what the flow is at Fordyce right now??

TIA

No Campfires yet. It's still way too dry even with last weeks rain.

AMEN! Check with the Forest Service to be sure. I bet permits are still required for campstoves too........

website says 110 until Sep 30

Campfire restrictions are *STILL* in effect in Tahoe and Eldorado NF.

Unless in a designated recreation area (see the link)

" Wood Fires and Charcoal Barbeques will not be allowed.

Gas Stoves and Gas Barbeques are allowed if a California Campfire Permit is in possession."

So bring lots of Anti Freeze <IMG SRC="smilies/blender.gif" border="0"> to keep warm.

You guy's need to head south. No restrictions at Swamp Lake other than the usual campfire permit. <IMG SRC="smilies/biggrin.gif" border="0">
