I know that buying firewood for $5-$10 an armful is ridiculously expensive -- we heat the sticks 'n' bricks with wood and buy it by the cord at home. But please, folks, don't transport firewood more than a few miles from where it was harvested. It risks expanding the range of insect pests that cause a lot of damage.

Please...this also applies in Ontario and likely the other provinces.
At provincial parks you can't transfer wood, however, you are allowed to take "cut offs"
This means any lumber used for building you may bring. Obviously no woods with glue, stain or treatment. Just cutoffs from dry kilned lumber. Due to weight we try to find a logging rd near CS and gather any they have left.
