- Make sure you have a 3/4 ton pickup truck full of wood for the weekend - The rangers will give you dirty looks but just ignore it
- Always bring an accelerant - fuel means burned eyebrows, eye lashes, mustaches, arm and hand hair, and makes for at least a 1/2 hour of laughter
- Do not give any wood away to lame campers who did not come prepared unless they are female and good looking
- Keep the wood feeding from the wood truck, and park the truck close to the fire - but not too close
- If the fire ring is not glowing by noon your doing something wrong. See section on using accelerant
- Oak, seems to work best, any hard wood will do. Stay clear of pine or other soft wood. It sounds good but does not get hot enough
- If the fire exceeds the fire ring, then you have succeeded on making a fire that is worthy of being called a more wood fire!
- If the ranger tells you they are calling the fire department you have built a good fire
- If the flames a blue for the first 3 feet then the fire may be hot enough. If your not sure put more wood on the fire, MORE WOOD
- If the campers next to you turn out their light and are reading the paper by the light of your fire 50 feet away then it is a good fire, MORE WOOD

The Fall 2006 crew, the day after the great fire and steak dinner. Looks like Kip and Jack ate all the food though from the size of those waist lines!
