The best way to extinguish a fire like this is with a near-excessive amount of water. Campfires in general, and this fire log specifically, have an incredible ability to trap heat deep down inside. You may be able to extinguish the exposed flames and surface embers with a light dowsing, but that trapped heat will rapidly evaporate the water away, allowing the fire to potentially reignite. It’s really important to thoroughly drown these campfires. And the best way to do that is with A LOT of water.

Fire burning in the center of the a large log can burn a long time. What suggestions do you have to extinguishing remaining embers when leaving the campsite.

We have a limited-edition Dutch oven from the now out of business Poler Stuff. It was just a 10″ 4 quart Lodge Dutch oven that they co-branded with their design. So while you can pick up a Lodge Dutch oven anywhere, our lid is now collectible.
