OK, we had a quick "text message" discussion... and unless otherwise overridden, here is the scoop
Since this is the first year camping at PPIR: we don't have a permission for any kind of open fire, unknown potential for a wild fire in the field, etc.... sorry, we have to say no to the fire-pit
We will allow propane grills and suchSince we didn't think about getting approval above ground fire-pits... we will attempt to get clearance to use them next year
