Yepper your right thats a heck of a camp fire all right. You should be able to cook a bunch with that one.

I'd just like to be able to go camping this time of year. Well I guess I could, but I think I'm too old for that winter camping BS.

i like camping into the early fall but thats the extent of it tho.
i don't see how that twig is holding that much weight? unless they changed the aspect of the photo by backing off to around 15 feet and zoomed in on it making the pots look larger then what they really are.

The title reminded me of the good ol days of huge bonfires at the lake all summer long.

Saw these last summer and stopped to chat with the maker a welder by trade.




I have one with iron hooks that hold the dutch ovens at any height. I don't have a photo since I am not really happy with how the frame over it works. Maybe this camping season I will get it just right.

So ready to be out camping.

Cooking over a real open fire can be challenging, but rewarding. I did these steaks last year on a pack trip. Just before I put them on my buddy decided "that fire needs more wood", I had to set him straight about cooking over coals.

so what was your assesent on the fire, to adding anymore wood.

to me its prime, not to much or to little but a constent heat for what your cooking there.

I smacked his hands, tossed the log away, and told him to keep his mitts away from my cooking fire. It had finally burned down to a nice bed of coals, he felt if there weren't flames lapping at the steaks they wouldn't cook. Those ribs and Tbones couldn't have been better.
