Fire planning
Campfire & stove rules
ProhibitedCampfires
Bull Creek Camp is an undeveloped backcountry camp area in Humboldt Redwoods State Park. Open fires are prohibited at Humboldt Redwoods primitive trail camps; verify current stove rules. Ground fires are not authorized; use a park-provided fire facility only when the selected camp has one and the park has not suspended fires.
Backpacking stoves
Portable gas stove in the assigned camp when park rules allow. Use a self-contained portable gas stove only in the portion of the assigned camp approved by California State Parks. Extreme-fire-danger and red-flag restrictions can suspend stove use.
Permit
The required backcountry reservation or permit does not itself grant fire permission. California State Parks does not identify a separate California Campfire Permit for an approved portable stove inside these park camps.
Current restrictions
Check the current Humboldt Redwoods State Park notice and the assigned camp posting before using any flame; State Parks may prohibit wood, charcoal, or every flame device without changing the reservation.
