What's your best fire starting device for starting a fire immediately in a bad situation? Cold, wet, bad circumstances. Lighter, matches, ferro rod, etc?
Yes, I carry a few options because in the NW rubbing sticks together isn't a good prospect. Once the weather turns I usually have a lighter in my pocket, another sealed one in my pack, my sheath has ferro rod on it, I keep a Dones Bar, vasaline soaked cotton balls, and storm matches.
