Does anyone know if personal fire pits are allowed at small camps? I don't remember ever seeing any before and we are thinking of having one this year.
Thanks bunches!
Personal Fire Pits
No. NO pits of any kind for purposes of burning anything. It's part of the permit stipulations. No direct burning on the playa surface either. you must have a fire shield and elevate any fire source appx 6" off of the playa surface. You can expect a fine from BLM if they should drive by and see you burning on the playa of in a pit.
Desert dogs drink deep.

From the survival guide:
The short answer is "no." We have a nifty little patio fireplace and it stays home for the burn.Burn Barrels & Camp Fires
Camp fires are not permitted with the exception of designated public areas. 55 gallon steel drum "burn barrels" with legs, staked down against high winds, will be provided for some theme camps on the Esplanade. Groups receiving these will be asked to monitor their use and help with their clean up. Commercially manufactured type cooking equipment (staked down in case of winds) is the only acceptable fire sources for cooking within camps.
