Campfire and fire-use rules for this area, with each localized order the land manager has published.

Campfires only in developed sites.

Developed sites

The Superintendent's Compendium (approved January 08, 2026) says fire lighting or maintenance is generally prohibited except in designated areas and receptacles. Campfires are permitted in established fire rings in designated wilderness campsites, government-provided grills, or self-contained grills or stoves in designated picnic areas and campgrounds. Fires are prohibited at Douglas Spring and Grass Shack campgrounds. Fuel is limited to charcoal briquettes or natural firewood, and flammable liquids, garbage, fireworks, plastics, aerosol canisters, batteries, and other manufactured or synthetic materials are prohibited as fire fuel. No seasonal or time-limited order or fire danger stage was found in the supplied text.
