If you decide to use wood, you can use less wood by simply building smaller fires.对于营火和做饭的木材，首先您需要了解和遵守规则的公园你是住进来如果您决定使用木材，您可以使用木材少，只需建设小火。 The old-time woodcrafters were fond of pointing out the wisdom of the Indians who would build a small fire and gather in closer to it while white men would waste materials by building a big fire that was so hot they'd have to back away from it.旧的时间woodcrafters是喜欢指出智慧的印第安人谁将建立一个小型火灾和聚集在接近它，而白人男子将废料建立了大火灾，是这么热，他们不得不放弃它。 For staying warm at night, throw on an extra blanket or buy a sleeping bag that is rated for lower temperatures.对于住在温暖的晚上，扔一个额外的毯子或购买睡袋是额定温度较低。 I recently read about a family that had some kind of heater in their tent and were found dead the next morning due to carbon monoxide poisoning.最近我读到一个家庭有某种形式的热水器在他们的帐篷和被发现死亡的第二天早晨，由于一氧化碳中毒。 Is getting a better night's sleep worth that kind of risk?越来越有更好的睡眠值得这样的风险？ I'm not saying I won't use pressurized fuel, but I don't think people should feel obligated to use it due to environmental concerns if they are uncomfortable with the safety issues or just like cooking on an old-fashioned campfire while observing park rules.我并不是说我不会使用压力燃料，但我不认为人们应该感到有义务利用它因环境问题如果他们不舒服的安全问题，或者仅仅是想做饭的老式篝火，同时遵守公园的规则。 The author, Greg Bonney, is the owner of Bonney Information and E-Commerce and founder of Scoutcamping.com ( http://www.scoutcamping.com ).作者格雷格邦尼，是老板波尼信息和电子商务的创始人Scoutcamping.com （ http://www.scoutcamping.com ） 。 Copyright © 2005 Bonney Information and E-Commerce. © 2005波尼信息和电子商务。
