No fire ring campfires

Campfire bans occur here in the Southwest under "RED FLAG" warning conditins (low humidity and high winds). Their "no burn" rules include PROPANE FIRES and charcoal fires, so propane fireplaces are out. They only permit a Coleman-stove open flame under those conditions. When in the BLM desert areas that allow campfires but no mark on the dirt, use a metal trashcan lid-type object as it's small, has no moving parts, and can be wrapped to minimize the mess. The washer tubs and folding firepits are nice, but they're big, dirty and may become difficult handle over time.
