Prepared Camper: Spark Safety Not Wildfire

March 27, 2025 by BLM New Mexico 0 Comments

Concerned with winds picking up on your trip? Skip the campfire, use a propane fire ring instead! Just like with a campfire, place in cleared area, keep it maintained, and never leave it running unattended! The best part is you can just turn it off. Campfire Safety

The prepared camper’s checklist:

  • Fire extinguisher in vehicle / 5 gallons of extra water
  • Shovel
  • Solar panel/generator alternatives, ensure clearance around and do not leave unattended when connected or running
  • Maintained camp stove or fire ring fueled by liquified petroleum gas (i.e., butane, propane)
  • Check weather and fire restrictions before you go-weather.gov, SW Fire Restrictions Dashboard
