But the public will not be left without a source of wood, emphasized Regional Forester Charles A. Connaughton, U. S. Forest Ser vice. "A campfire Is Important to the camping experience," the Forest Service official said, "and we want to keep that. But we have reached the point where furnishing free, stove-length wood Is no longer practical." The cost of furnishing fire wood to campgrounds in Oregon and Washington Is approximate ly $200,000 per year, Connaugh ton said. 'That amount of mon ey would build 100 campground family units that would accom modate 500 persons. With funds for recreational development lacking and campgrounds more crowded than ever, we feel sav ings must be made in certain places. The free firewood pro gram Is one of these places." Campers win una several al ternatives to assure they have wood for campfires. These alter natives will vary by local con ditions. Some of the larger campgrounds will be serviced by concessionaires. Some camp grounds may have do-it-yourself woodpiles. Some may direct campers to nearby areas where firewood can be gathered. In some circumstances, the camper may have to obtain wood from private sources near the campground.
