The water level has been dropping so bad out there I wonder how much water is even left at whole 33. Within one month of me visiting there over the summer the water dropped significantly... About the fires I believe I heard that an older lady at boulder beach next to the fishing pier made a fire that the rangers made her put out and warned her that she could be fined. Altough being out way by yourself it may be a bit different at hole 33. I think it would be safer to just dress warmer as they cannot ticket you for that and do you don't really have to carry on the hike since you'll be wearing it. A gas lantern could warm your hands if you really wanted fire for the warmth factor.
