Title: Re: Quetico campsite fireplaces

I'm coming late to the discussion. There are lots of thoughts above I'd echo. I like cooking over the open fire, with a modest fire ring with good draft.

Maybe this exposes me as a crusty old SOB, but I think the "troubles" many of us have with trash and thoughtlessness is akin to trash thrown out of vehicles, soda bottles dropped along the sidewalk (a significant feature of the university campus where I taught), a general "someone will pick it up" attitude. Dozens of times I've picked up soda bottles and deposited them in the re-cycle bins only a few feet from where the bottle was dropped. There's a sort of social pathology here.

Yeah, I am exposed as a crusty old man. Oh, well. Some of you knew that.
