Why the Right Firewood Matters
Efficient Burning: Properly seasoned firewood burns hotter and longer, reducing the need for constant refueling.
Safety: Dry, seasoned wood produces less smoke and fewer sparks, making your campfire safer.
Better Flavor: For those who love cooking over a campfire, the right wood enhances the flavor of grilled food.
Environmental Impact: Using local, sustainably sourced firewood prevents the spread of pests and diseases.
Types of Firewood for Camping
Hardwood vs. Softwood
Hardwood: Oak, hickory, and maple are dense woods that burn slower and hotter—ideal for long campfires.
Softwood: Pine and fir ignite quickly but burn faster and can produce more smoke and sap, which may cause flare-ups.
Seasoned vs. Green Wood
Seasoned Wood: Dried for at least 6-12 months, this wood is ready to burn efficiently.
Green Wood: Freshly cut, contains moisture making it hard to light and produces excess smoke.
