Camp-style cooking at the beach

Whatever the activity, or lack thereof, a fabulous dinner is a great way to cap off a day outdoors. All that's needed is a campfire, a little planning, a skillet and a Dutch oven. Here, at Dockweiler State Beach, a camp menu includes pan-fried trout, white bean salad and buttermilk stick biscuits.
