I do not carry firewood, just because Texas has been hit hard by oak wilt and other blights.
Instead, I find a local mill, buy scrap pieces of -untreated- lumber, preferably 4x4s, and have them cut to 15 inch lengths. Since the wood pieces are cured, there are no bugs present that would hitch a ride to new areas. They also burn quite well.
we no longer carry firewood...too much unnecessary weight. on the rare occasions we have a fire we buy it in town or at the campground. I do carry a small tub of kindling made from 1x2 lumber.
