I know it was mentioned above but before trekking a metric buttload of wood out there you might want to confirm the fire rules in effect this week. When I was at Yosemite over Memorial Day I was talking to a ranger who said that this summer is expected to be really bad firewise and they would likely be implementing even stricter fire regulations than usual (at Yosemite fires are only allowed from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m.). I don't know what they do at King's Canyon but the conditions are probably worse there.

You may not be allowed to burn big fires that would go through more than two bundles a night.
