Someone had posted earlier they heard there was an open fire ban on PINS. Has anyone confirmed this? It was said a grill was ok, but not an open fire (bon fire).

Thanks,
SportFisher

It was mentioned on the news friday night. The fire has to be in some sort of metal container. I don't see what is wrong with a 1 1/2 foot hole in the ground. I always put my fire in a hole so the wood lasts longer because it is out of the bellow or wind.

Some counties up here are considering banning all forms of outdoor burning, including BBQ pits. Shocked

The drought is really bad. Lets hope it doesn't get as bad as the 80's drought did.

Wish I had known about the ban over the weekend. We had a nice open pit fire going at about the thirty.
