I hate to be the firewood police but just in case people aren't aware:

https://www.fs.usda.gov/Internet/FSE...eprd542741.pdf

Bringing firewood onto the Allegheny National Forest from outside the counties of Elk, Forest, McKean and Warren can spread the emerald ash borer, sirex wood wasp, hemlock woolly adelgid or other firewood borne invasive species.

Oh man... I had always heard that transporting from out of state was bad, but didn't realize that this specific regulation existed. In that case, I will not be bringing any wood from Allegheny County! Thanks for the heads up!

Does this include kiln dried bug free wood. I was planning on bringing a little to cook on.

after further research I found this:
Packaged heat treated firewood with a stamp showing treatment of at least core temperature of 160°F for a minimum of 75 minutes is permitted.

Mine doesn't show temp or time just a stamp saying it was treated for the ash borer. I don't want any trouble so I guess all wood stays home. Oh well.

if you head east on rt666 towards Sheffield, there is a resident that sells bundles of wood. In the Village of Barnes at the junction with rt948.

As of right now, not sure if we will make it. Laurie's been very sick all week, if she doesnt feel up to it we will stay home

Gonna have to say I'm pretty upset i was unable to make it to this. Looking on the bright side tho, we went camping with a couple who is new to it and they are pretty excited about it. Now to just get them in hammocks
