Wet-Weather Campfire Planning and Safety

Rainy conditions make outdoor cooking and campfire plans more difficult. Prepare ahead by checking local fire rules, packing weatherproof supplies, and identifying a safe, designated cooking area.

Before your trip

  • Check whether campfires are allowed at your destination.
  • Pack dry backup meals and a reliable camping stove appropriate to the conditions.
  • Keep essential supplies protected from rain in waterproof storage.
  • Choose an established campsite away from flood-prone ground and overhead hazards.

Never rely on finding dry firewood in the field. Respect local restrictions and fully extinguish any permitted campfire before leaving.
