Open fire season here, and no trees or buildings within cooee on a windless day so all good.(03-01-2022, 01:28 PM)harm_less Wrote: The base of the burn pile is large willow and poplar stumps from when we took out a shelter belt on moving here 5 years back. This is the 4th fire I've set over them but still they survive. Today's effort was largely fuelled by lawsoniana branches from some winter windfalls so really got going. Hopefully no rain for a week or two will see the stumps continue to smolder away but I suspect they will survive to see another fire or two yet.I dunno where you live but think I'd be very careful about setting outdoor fires just now.  You might need a permit - if it's allowed at all ?
I'll be out there again this evening to flick the unburnt ends into the embers. Too hot to consider doing it now.
Bit of a warm one today
