Of course, we all carry a fire permit, right? ... And even with a fire 
permit, places where one can legally build a fire ("yellow-stake" sites, 
existing fire rings in established campgrounds, etc.) are still few and far 
between. Then, there's the problem of "wood gathering." Generally, that's not 
allowed either in southern CA.

Your best bet is to be self-sufficient and carry ALL the fuel tabs you might 
need for your trip.
