All stoves and campfires require a valid California Campfire Permit. Get your campfire permit online.
Campfires are allowed only at developed campgrounds in USDA Forest Service-provided campfire rings and Klamath stoves. Klamath stoves look like wood-burning fireplaces that can be used for cooking or to generate warmth.
Wood or charcoal BBQ use is allowed in USDA Forest Service-provided grills only in developed campgrounds, picnic sites, and day-use areas.
Visitors may only bring gas grills (-no charcoal grills) and use them in developed campgrounds, picnic sites, and day-use areas if all combustible (burnable) material is removed five feet from the base of the grill.
Outside of developed campgrounds (with fire rings), only portable lanterns or stoves (commonly referred to as "backpacker stovesβ) that use gas, jellied petroleum, or pressurized liquid fuel are allowed to be used. Users must possess a valid California Campfire Permit, even for use of a lantern or stove, and be in compliance with permit conditions. Get your campfire permit online. NOTE: Having a California Campfire Permit does not give you permission to have a campfire outside of developed (official) campgrounds.
