I've played with fatwood very little. For 3-4 day trips, I like Coughlans fire paste. I feel it's the highest BTUs for the weight as I'm not allowed to play with Napalm anymore. A guy could spend an afternoon sourcing some I suppose, but that's an afternoon I could spend fishing or hunting.

But primitive living skills are where my studies have been lately, because in 17 more years when I semi retire, I plan on spending 7 months in a wilderness being a total land hippy.


I'm Irish...

Of course I know how to patch drywall
