Hey,
A few days ago I went out to the nearby lakes and built a shelter, and built a fire. The problem was, I was so unorgansied that I just grabbed anything withit arms reach for my fire. It didn't work. So I sat on my log for a few minutes, and had a think. Then I went out and collected all the materials for a fire (except tinder, I had toilet roll), I managed a pretty damn good fire.
Anyhow, my question is, what are the best natural tinders that are readily available at this time of year? Because I don't want to Always resort to loo roll!
If possible, please include some pictures so that I can learn to recognize the different tinders.
Thanks,
Toby
