We suspect a short in one of the camping trailers, probably the one setup on north side. Speculating north wind blew flames into other camper, then into ATV/UTV's. We know it did not start at the box because the power cords were still OK. We'll probably never know for sure though.

Dang JG! just checking in on the campfire after some time off and find this. After first thinking you were unfortunate I scrolled down to see the pics and now I'm thinking you were very fortunate. Had that happened at night somebody would probably be dead. Never seen ATV's burned like that. Had to be a hot fire upwind. Strange.

If I saw a buck like that I would be shaking too much to hit 'em
And if I came back to camp and saw that carnage I would be shaking for a different reason.

You guys are right. It is just "stuff" when you get right down to it. Thanks for the kind words. You can buy "stuff"

As said, thankfully ya'll are ok.
