And that covers it. If you are parking in Campgrounds when the pit starts to fill.. Call for ash-removal. but on BLM or other "use your own fire pit" land that is not an option.
Oh. the new thing in Campgrounds is "Safe" fire rings. instead of the old Truck Rim they now have a thing with two sections of culvert pipe with about 4" of concrete between 'em. And Spikes to go into the ground so you can't easily move or lift it.. I had a muffler shop bend some pipe to fit over it and put a 2" 12 volt fan (Computer type) in the cold end. a portable jump start batter and the fire gets lots of air. I have a bigger one for the older rings.
I also have a Pit-2-Go (Portable fire pit that holds the wood or coals OFF the ground so the grass below does not burn) That one is nice. Too bad I no longer do campfires.
