Anybody know how to get wood?...
« on: May 18, 2010, 09:33:33 AM »
FOR CAMPING!
(ahh.. see what I did there? ;))

Anyway. Just wondering if any of you fine folks know where to get cheap firewood for camping this weekend? If I buy it at the camp site it will be about 40$ and that only covers 1 night.
I can take my seat out of my Jeep and haul a whole bunch so if you know of any good places, that'd be awesome.

Thanks!

I've got some scrap wood behind my shop if you want to take that, pallets, sheets, 2x4's and logs.  Some in the back of the green f-250 and a pile next to it.  Please come take it!

Sweet guys, thanks for the offers I will keep you posted. I live in the far NW so it might be tough, but I will let you know if I can snag it from you!

Just took a look back there, no more logs.  I still have 3 pallets some 2x4's and some sheets.  Whoever wants it come get it.

Rona had small bundles of wood for about $8 when I was there yesterday. Some gas stations also sell bundles of wood.

My $0.02   ;D

I wouldn't pay someone to cut a tree, bring it to the city for me to buy it, haul it back out to the forrest to burn it to ashes...
And scrap just doesn't smell right when camping

they sell wood at the camp site because you need a permit to harvest wood on public land (it''s like $12)...


I would not risk to hack up a dead stand on May long week-end at Mclean... Please be that guy. If you do; please do it in front of the SRD or RCMP... if you gonna do something stupid might as well do it right. :-[
