A mate sent me this and I thought I would post it for those who are interested.
"Just thought you would like to know.
I rang the National Parks & Wildlife here in
Adelaide, & spoke to the
head fire dude.
I asked him this.
"In summer, you have signs in all your parks, saying GAS FIRES ONLY.,
So, what's the go with metho & dual fuel stoves?"
Although there is NO distinct legislation, if push came to shove, you
would lose out badly if you use anything other than gas.
I was contemplating buying an MSR Dragonfly, but have since changed my
mind. I've since ordered another 1.2kg. Bottle & gas ring with Peizo.
Don't know how this equates in the other states, but here in SA, it's
GAS, or nothing. NO HEAT BEADS, NO SHELLITE, NO METHO, NO SOLID FUEL.
All of the NO thingies can be alight, and get blown around in the wind,
or spill, and catch bleep on fire. ( my words, not Smokey's! )."
I found it interesting. Not sure how it applies in other states either but it could be worth looking into. I only use gas so it doesn't affect me, but could be useful for others.
Cheers,
Jim.
