6. FIRES

No person shall light any fire, except at camping-sites, without the express permission of the Secretary or a ranger.

Fires shall not be kindled near trees or dead wood, moss, dry leaves, grass, tussock, forest mould, or other vegetation, but may be lit in some specially prepared open place on rocks or earth. Should camps be located in a locality where no such open space exists, or is provided, the dead wood, moss, dry leaves, &c., must be scraped away to the rock or earth over an area considerably larger than that required by the fire. Fires shall be lighted only when necessary, and when no longer needed shall be completely extinguished, and all embers and the bed smothered with earth and water so that there remains no possibility of reignition.

Special care must be taken that no lighted match, cigar, or cigarette is dropped in any grass or other inflammable matter.

Nothing in this by-law shall exempt an offender from his or her liability under the Public Reserves, Domains, and National Parks Act, 1928, or any other Act, with respect to the lighting of fires.

9. ADVERTISING

No person shall erect, post, or display any notices or advertisements within the park, except such as the Board may deem necessary for the convenience and guidance of visitors to the park.

12. DOGS, ETC.

No person shall take any dog or cat into the park without the written permission of the Board or liberate or abandon in the park any dog, cat, or other animal.

The ranger is empowered to destroy any dog or cat found in the park without authority or not being under proper control.
