5 Natural Fire Starting Tinders in the Winter

Very best fire starters

[joeyjones]

My favorites in order are: Fatwood/Pine Pitch, Birch Bark, Cedar Bark, Tulip Poplar Bark, and Feathersticks/Grass/Anything fine or fluffy. I carry man made tinder like Wetfire, Fat Rope Stick, Mini Inferno, and Trioxane in my Fire Kit, but I always try to use natural materials from the environment when starting a fire. I also have a small tinder bag I carry to collect natural tinder sources. Great informative video.

I live in Northwest Indiana, so I have the exact same resources. Great video. I encourage everyone to go out and scout around for the natural fire starters in their area.

I wish I had Birch tree in my neck of the woods. Is that a Fiddleback Forge knife?

[snowboarding]

Good stuff! That knife though! 🤘🏼what is it?

[davidmcfarland]

Could you please point me to that specific Hidden Woodsman sack that you keep your tender in? Can’t see it on their site.
Also any specific recommendations on a lighter?
Thx

What I learned from this video. Carry a lighter, because a fire steel as a primary ignition source is less than ideal.

Need to send me a pile of that birch bark

[ccmogs]

Ben, what do you think is the better procamptek product - fast-fire, wax-wood or fat-rope ? :)

[alexwbanks]

Yeah man its a bummer there's no good birch bark down here in Ohio.
