When fire restrictions are in place for an area, are you still able to use a camp stove? Like, say I whipped out a camp table and put my butane stove on it and wanted to cook. Would that be permissable even if fires or charcoal grills aren’t?
I realize some of the answer might be “it depends”…despite that, I still am curious what the “averages” might be, based on your experiences.

On US Forest Service lands, liquid fuel stoves that have an on/off valve are generally okay to use during fire restrictions. The things that get restricted are campfires, wood or charcoal stoves, and other open stoves like DIY alcohol stoves or Esbit stoves. In my experience other agencies tend to take the same approach.
