Do I Need A Burn Permit For Campfires?
It is illegal to burn anything when the DNR labels Marathon County as high, very high, or extreme fire danger. Campfires do not require a permit if you burn within the fire ring. If the fire burns outside the fire ring, you will need a permit. Be mindful that any time you burn, you are liable for any damage your fire causes.
