Hello! Those of you who bring a charcoal grill with you camping, how do you dispose of the ashes?

If we're car camping, we have an ash bucket we bring. Just make sure the bottom is thick enough to handle coals.

Good tip. Pack it in, pack it out.

If you are primitive camping, a big bucket of water and a spade or sturdy stick are your friends. Thoroughly douse the embers, break up the coals, douse it again for good measure, then scatter any remaining cool ashes outside the campsite.
