No, a flint is not a pyrotechnic device. That would be a flare gun, hand held flare, smoke generator or the like.

As far as campfires are concerned, and the cart use I would call the number and inquire with the rangers office whose jurisdiction the area you are going to be in.

It is a National Forest, therefore Federal law would be the set of laws governing the area regardless of which state you are in. You would be in Federal Jurisdiction. Break a law within the confines of the Ntl Forest and you would be arraigned, and tried in Federal Court, subject to Federal penalties, and could wind up in Federal Prison.

You would need a valid hunting license for whatever state you are hunting in.

Quote: "All State hunting and fishing regulations, fees, and seasons apply on national forest land."

The hunting regulations are governed by which state you are hunting in.

Call the Agency and ask for clarification just to be sure.

A good friend of mine almost got into some very hot legal water in Everglades national park over a concealed weapon ( a big No-No). The state of florida had issued him a permit to carry, so he carried on his boat. He was boarded by rangers, who found the gun. They very firmly informed him that once he crossed into the National Park he was under subject to Federal Regulation and Law regardless of what permit the state had granted him as he was in a National Park. It could have gone very badly for him if he had been arrested because of it.

Know the rules...
