Welcome . . .to the Gila National Forest. We hope you enjoy your
wood gathering experience. Please contact the nearest district
office if you have any questions about firewood.
• Information in this guide and permits detailed herein applies
to forest lands within the Gila National Forest and the portion of
the Apache National Forest in the state of New Mexico only,
administered by the Quemado Ranger District and parts of Glenwood
Ranger District, Gila National Forest.
• Firewood can only be cut during daylight hours. The official
daily sunrise to official sunset per National Weather Service.
• To cut or transport wood from the Gila National Forest, you
must have a printed permit, the Dead and/or Green Firewood Cutting
Tags and Removing Instructions from this 2021 firewood guide, the
Green Firewood Area Maps from this 2021 firewood guide if cutting
green firewood, and removal tags that have been properly completed
(see directions for removal tags on page 5 & 7 of this guide).
Without ALL of these, you are illegally taking firewood which can
result in the loss of your permit, loss of any wood you have cut,
up to a $5,000 fine, and 6 months in jail.
• The Gila National Forest has published its Motor Vehicle Use
Map (MVUM) which triggers the implementation of the travel
management plan. The travel management plan designates a system of
roads, trails, and areas open to the public for motor vehicle use
authorized for off road travel. All permit holders are responsible
for adhering to the MVUM and any directions for motorized uses
provided in the Firewood guide.
• Please stay on existing roads. During wet and muddy
conditions, please wait to cut on another day when roads are drier.
Firewood gathering may occur along open motor vehicle use
designated roads. Motor vehicles may be parked one vehicle length,
including any towed trailer, from the edge of the road surface when
it is safe to do so without causing damage to NFS resources or
facilities, unless prohibited by state law, a traffic sign, or an
order (36 CFR261.54).
• All firewood areas are in natural forest terrain with no
modifications for accessibility. Make sure that you know your
limits and work within your abilities. Firewood cutting can be fun,
but it is also hard work. Be sure that you and your equipment are
in good working condition.
• The firewood season on the Gila National Forest is from
January 4 through December 31. Specific areas may have limited
Seasons.
• In order to sustain healthy, vibrant natural lands for all
people to enjoy, every person who ventures outside should put Leave
No Trace practices into action. Leave No Trace is about making good
decisions to protect the world around you. Please dispose of waste
properly, travel on durable surfaces, respect wildlife, avoid
introducing or transporting non-native species, and be considerate
of others.
• It is also important to preserve the past. Historic structures
and artifacts can be examined and photographed, but leave what you
find. Multiple laws and directions govern the management of
cultural resources. These include, but are not limited to:
Antiquities Act of 1906; National Historic Preservation Act of 1966
(NHPA); National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA);
Archaeological Resources Protection Act of 1979 (ARPA); and Native
American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act of 1990 (NAGPRA).
Those who violate can face substantial fines and even a jail
sentence if convicted. Do your part to pass our nation’s heritage
of outdoor recreation to future generations.

8 Gila National Forest Firewood Guide • 2021
How Much Wood Do I Have?You’ve been cutting most of the day, and
your truck or trailer is now loaded with firewood. So, how much
wood do you actually have? Here are some guidelines to help you get
the amount of wood you paid for.
A 1/4-ton small pickup truck will hold 1/4 cord of wood when the
load is piled up above the bed of the truck.
A 1/2-ton pickup with a short bed, or a step-side bed, will also
hold 1/4 cord of wood when it is loaded to the top of the bed. All
of these loads would require one 1/4- cord tag separated, notched,
and attached to the load.
On average, a full bed pickup truck holds 1/2 cord of firewood
when it is filled to the top of the bed. This load would require
two 1/4-cord tags separated, notched, and attached to the load.
Measuring the Diameter Root Crown (DRC) & Diameter Breast
Height (DBH)Diameter Root Crown (DRC) is measured between the
ground line and 12 inches above the ground line. Diameter Breast
Height (DBH) is diameter at 4.5 feet from the ground.
How Much Wood in a Cord?Dimensions: One cord = 8 feet long x 4
feet wide x 4 feet deep.
Volume in Cubic Feet: One cord = 128 cubic feet = 8 feet
(length) x 4 feet (width) x 4 feet (height).
A full bed truck with rails will hold 1 cord of wood when it is
loaded level with the roof of the truck from the cab to the
tailgate. This load would require four 1/4-cord tags separated,
notched, and attached to the load.
Diameter or Circumference?Diameter is the distance across the
end of the log.
Circumference is the distance around the log.
To measure a tree before it is cut, you will need to measure its
circumference.
Here are conversions from diameter to circumference: 6 inches
diameter = 1 foot, 6 inch circumference
8 inches diameter = 2 foot, 1 inch circumference
9 inches diameter = 2 feet, 4 inch circumference
10 inches diameter = 2 feet, 7 inch circumference
12 inches diameter = 3 feet, 1 inch circumference
16 inches diameter = 4 feet, 2 inch circumference

boundary of the firewood area. The northern boundary is the fence
line headed North East from FR 141. The boundary will separate from
the fence at the end of 4092T and proceed along the ridgetops as
shown on the map. The north east most boundary will follow the
timber sale unit near Olla Tank and back along FR 4164C. It
proceeds along the road to the fence line heading South east back
to a timber sale boundary. Near FR 633 the boundary will follow
Naranjo Canyon south to FR 141. The boundary will continue to the
south between Naranjo and Granny canyon following the ridge and
portion of FR 4165G back to the canyon bottom. The southern
boundary on the west side of Sign Camp Mountain will be a
combination of FR 4174X headed south towards Greyback Tank and
timber sale boundaries that are marked with orange paint. The
western most boundary follows the District Boundary fence line
across FR161 to FR141.
