Japan Has A Tradition Of Fire Pits In The Home Called Irori.


It is only natural that Japan would produce the most high quality portable fire pit. Portable fire pits allow the tradition of Irori to travel on outdoor adventures. Gathering, cooking, warming. The portable Fireplace is a extension of the home Irori.




I Have Been Using My Snow Peak Fire Pit For About 2 Years - It's Been Great Piece Of Gear


This is the XL Snow Peak Pack and Carry Folding Fire Pit. It will arrive in a flat box. First thing you notice opening the flat box is the Fire Resistant Stainless Steel Construction. It has some weight to it but less than a comparable Iron fire pit. The Snow Peak is extremely durable and requires little maintenance. Holes and gaps in hinges allow for great air flow and a hot burning fire.

Mendocino National Forest - Our First Time Using the Snow Peak


We met the Ranger at the entrance to Grizzly Flat Campground, Mendocino National Forest. He issued us a fire permit and we used the Snow Peak for the first time. There was a beat up fire ring at our camp. I stuck the fire pit inside and and had safely contained campfire.

My wife likes to make the campfire. I'm usually cooking. Here we are at Alabama Hills California Best Campsite. The was a shallow hole and a rock pile but no fire ring. Using our Snow Peak Fire Pit we had a better fire. Elevating the campfire allows for better airflow and a place to put your feet to warm them. Use care not to melt your shoes!

I Use My Fire Pit Even When There Is Fire Ring At The Campsite


Fires in the Fire Pit burn much better. You never know what was burnt in that fire ring before you got there like plastics and garbage. Air flow is much better when raising the fire because of the holes and spaces in the construction. I also like to put my feet on the rimp of the fire pit to warm them.




When It's Time To Go The Snow Peak Packs Up Quick And Stows Out Of The Way


Like the little video above shows. Dump what little ashes are left (it burns wood completely) in a appropriate container or location, fold it and stow it. I'm tossing it in the back of my Exventure XV-3 Off-Road Trailer. Don't be afraid to stack on top of it. This Fire Pit is strong and a not much will hurt it.




Campfire Might Be The Best Part Of The Trip


Hanging by the campfire, telling stories, planning the next day or just relaxing with a cup of tea. Sitting by the fire, keeping warm and looking up at the stars is a great way to spend time in the outdoors. Slowing down the action, making great memories. Made a lot easier with a great Snow Peak Fireplace.





Campfire Permits - What I Carry For Fire Prevention - Link To Smokey Bear Campfire Safety


See the links above for awesome information on campfire safety and fire permits.

Here are the items I carry for managing my campfire:

  1. Metal Trash Can - Sometimes the only way to handle ashes is to pack them out. This is true at places like Anza Borego. Metal won't melt from hot ashes.

  2. 5 Gallons Extra Water - My Exventure XV-3 allows me capacity to carry extra water and fuel. I always have water to douse a fire if needed.

  3. Fire Extinguisher - Permanently mounted on the side of my trailer is a large fire extinguisher. I also keep one in the Jeep.

  4. Shovel - This one is a no brainer. Never leave home without your shovel. It has many uses including burying your fire.
