MJ, if not a real wood fire, see if they will allow a fake fire made with steel pipes and rocks, and powered by propane.

CD, they have told me, gas and briquette fired cookers are allowed so, a "fake" campfire, powered by propane should be legal...so, bring it on just in case..................

Hmmmmm...... I've got one of the little gas fired patio burners, hope we can have more of a fire than that

Madjack, I think that is a great idea to negotiate a group fire or two at selected sites. there will always be a number of people around and at least it will be a fire. With 150 people monitoring one or two firepits, that might be a good negotiating point. I have firewood in my truck either way because I am too lazy to unload it, that's just where I store it

It won't feel like camping if you can't sit around a fire sharing a few or more drinks with friends. I hope they will allow us a fire.

it's not the 150 or so people monitoring the fire that would be the problem - it's the accelerates that usually get applied to the fire that may cause the whole thing to get shut down!
