Uncontrolled fire can do a lot of trouble, so there are special laws that regulate the making of fires in nature. Violation of these standards can lead to serious consequences for nature, your health and wallet, since for fires started in nature through human fault, you can get a serious fine.
Step 2
Before starting a fire, it is necessary to equip a fireplace. It is necessary to collect all the garbage in the place where the fire will be, including all branches, leaves, cones, etc., remove the sod. The fireplace should not be located under trees and shrubs, especially those with low branches. Conifers can catch fire very quickly, so in no case should you make a fire near them.
Step 3
If you are building a fire in a snowy area, you need to trample the snow well under it. In winter, you need to make sure that there are no branches over the fire, even at high altitudes, as snow can fall from them into the fire.

It is dangerous to kindle a fire on peat soils, it is better not to do this at all, but if there is no way out, it is necessary to sprinkle the soil with a thick layer of sand, and the diameter of this layer should be at least a meter larger than the fire itself. Any spark can penetrate the peat and start a fire in the soil, which you cannot extinguish on your own.
