Tampon as tinder
by Teresa Sidney
ATV's or skidoo'ers should carry a tampon in their kit. When you break down and need a fire, it is great to have that tampon!
Put the tampon in your gas tank and hold onto the string. Remove tampon from the gas tank when it has been saturated with gas, then gather some wood and use the tampon soaked in gas to light your fire.
Voila starts fire right away.
Make sure you have the basic wilderness skills to safely enjoy your trip.
