        How many times have we all wished for a hot meal waiting back at camp after a long day harassing creatures and chasing arrows? If you haven’t tried this, give it a go this summer.

                We used to cook with our Dutch oven buried when I was a kid in Idaho. Some of the best goodies ever.

                I felt bad though when I told a friend about it and here on the Lake Meredith Rec area, Fed land, he gave it a try, buried the oven up and went hunting. Danged if the feds didn’t bust him for having an unattended fire. Might be a thought for some areas.

                    Coverups don’t always work with Feds right! 😉

                      🙄 just one of the many reasons I tend to avoid established campgrounds…

                        Different folks got different choices. Some places you camp where you gotta if you want to camp. 🙂

                          Most excellent! Made brownies in one like a hundred years ago. Thinkin’ I need one for the backyard fire pit.

                            Yea, I know:evil: I got a warning last December for an unattended campfire in an established campground that was covered in a foot of snow. That was the first one I’d stayed at in years.
