The hot rock bed idea is a great one. Just be sure not to use rocks that are from a stream bed. Those are the ones that are most likely to explode, since they usually have an uneven or large amount of moisture trapped inside of them. When that moisture is heated, it expands and causes the rocks to explode. The fragments of rock can be very dangerous, and can embed themselves into skin, face, eyes, etc. and also send hot coals into the brush which could cause a wildfire.
