My entire neighborhood has camp fires in the summer. We all have hoses close by and ours are never very big. It’s a social thing..smores, kids, neighbors. We always put them out with a hose before we go to bed. That’s the magic of living up here. We leave our driveway on a quad and can ride for miles too. This is why people buy 2nd homes to enjoy these things..that we all get to enjoy everyday. I would suggest going to the “new ” neighbor and just remind them that it is a good idea to have a hose near by and put it out when they go to bed. There is nothing better than neighbors, family and kids enjoying smores by a campfire.
And tonight, with ash falling all around; there’s a new “warming fire” I’m smelling. Again; campfires in BTV just not ok.
Precisely my point, and after 28 years coming to the area I find that “responsibility” is sorely lacking amongst the new comers.
BTW, who the heck needs a “campfire” by their home in the dead of summer??????
I am DUMBFOUNDED by this thread! Who in their right mind would have open “campfires” in BTV (or anywhere else in the area, for that matter) with the history and current fire situation in the State??
Where do these idiots come from???Sierrashoo. Tell that to the hundreds of campers in the park and the more than hundreds throughout the land. Warming fires are NOT roaring as you noted on your other post. Folks, if you see an unreasonable warming fire, call 911 and report it. I for one will continue to use warming fires responsibly
Ha chipmunk. I just edited my previous post that was concerned with a new neighbor’s “warming” fire. Folks, fires, however nice to sit by, are just an accident waiting to happen this summer. Let’s all save our “warming fires” till next November? Please?
Sorry. Let me reiterate. It was ROARING. Like flames shooting up (accelerants?). Not a “warming fire” which at 89 degrees after sunset was probably unnecessary as well.
Spoke with EPFD. Said that the fire was under control, but the lady I spoke with wasn’t sure of the exact location. Anyone know where on Sierra?
