These are also the regs in most communities in my state.

So you can have a wet wood smokey smouldering campfire but cant have a smoke when sitting next to it? Makes sense, not.


I think the jury is still out when it comes to the risks of second-hand campfire smoke. Maybe the folks in that town just decided they'd like to live longer, or something crazy like that........


Oh come on! Do you really believe that you are going to be exposed to second hand smoke from a neighboring camp site!!! I'm a smoker but I am very careful to not bother non smokers, and don't leave my butts all over camp sites. People that are tossing butts everywhere even bother me.

Stupid. And yes, I'm an ex-smoker. However passing a law like that makes me want to start all over again. The same idiots tried to outlaw drinking back in the 20's. Yeah, that worked out well, right Mr. Capone??


Fun is that stuff that happens in between mistakes.

Any word on the campfires, or fire rings in Kerrville?


Smoky campfires, brush and yard waste burning and field clearing fires are allowed.

Doesn't the Puget Sound area restrict wood burning???

If it spreads, Texas will be just like Florida!!!

If every smoker were as courteous and thoughtful as you, that would be great. Unfortunately, most are not.
