Just a quick note, They light at 9pm now, 7 days a week, weather permitting and if the wind is less than 15 mph. ( That said, it the weather app says 13 mph, sometimes its windier than that down there.) Burns for 15 minutes. Stay off the rocks and behind the fence. The operators are usually nice about asking you to get off the rocks or behind the fence. But if you act like the rules dont apply to you, they can and will shut it down early. Been there, seen that. Dont sneak up in boat when the river is up, 50 feet away from the flames when lit, stay off the dam too.
