How can I make a fire-ring if there isn’t one?

First and foremost, check local regulations, current fire bans and the campground where you are staying to see if they allow campfires. When permission is granted, proceed by digging a hole 1 foot deep in the ground and 1.5 feet in circumference. Be sure to clear all debris a minimum of 3 feet around the hole. Build up a ring of rocks around the hole, leaving a small opening at the base of the rock ring for ventilation to your campfire.
