Where do you get firewood on the desert
Just wondered where most people get firewood when boondocking in Arizona deserts. I imagine its not legal to harvest dead wood if you can find it so what do people use for firewood?

When camping on gov. lands in areas like AZ. deserts you may not possess wood native to the area. That means when boondocking in the desert, bring or buy. When camping within the boundaries of a national forest, it is permissible to collect dead DOWNED wood from the immediate area for cooking or comfort.
The strongest advice is to buy local from a supplier of certified bug free wood, or from anywhere bring scrap kiln dried construction lumber.
Contact the BLM or USFS supervisors office for regulations in the area you plan to travel.
