Return to article: How to BUILD A GOOD CAMPFIRE.
on 7/20/2008 I go camping to smell the clean, fresh air and get away from pollution. Recently while camping at a national park, I smelled something really awful. Someone in a neighboring campsite was burning something toxic. It marred the experience of being in the outdoors. Please, please, while camping, be kind and considerate of the animal life, plant life, and other humans in the area. Don't make toxic fumes!
on 2/7/2008 Zero Stars for the "burning rubber" idea...You are out in nature with a great campfire, and you are still looking for something pretty?? Are you serious? You really need to release "toxic fumes?" I would say its ideas like that that lead to less and less beauty in the world. Try to stay upwind from the rubber fumes a little more often.
on 2/3/2008 Great tutorial even for me. I am an avid camper and always start the fires. You taught me one new thing though, the copper pipe. Ha, never too old to learn are we? Thanks!

on 1/26/2008 Makes me want to camp out now!
on 1/24/2008 I can't wait for the weather to warm up!
on 1/16/2008 I like the copper pipe addition. I will try that this spring.
on 1/16/2008 Very well written and easy to follow. I like the photos too.
on 1/12/2008 Another idea is to build a ring of rocks around your campfire - this helps keep stray sparks away from dry tinder outside the fire ring.
on 1/12/2008 Since I'm a camping freak, I always enjoy reading about all things camping, especially about good 'ol campfire stories. With your article, I can build a nice big fire for everyone to sit around and tell lies!
