Yeah, kids love making fires and it's a valuable learning experience.
Good post Hampstead. Hard to overstate the importance of a fire. My personal survival plan for unexpected nights out here doesn't include one, but they sure nice...
I'm always interested in people's fire-starting tools and techniques. It's really, really difficult to get a fire going here sometimes, due to everything being soggy. There are times when it's either beyond my ability, or I'm just not willing/patient enough to do what it takes.
Today is one of those days, the rain has a life of it's own...
