Tinder is key

by Chase
(Calgary, Canada)

First you need to collect some nice dry tinder, match diameter... Get a thicker "Y" stick and lean it against the firepit wall with the split end up... break up your tinder and lay it across the y split...





Keep piling it on...

Before you light make sure to have enough fuel to add once it gets going...

Use a match or lighter to light the bottom of the tinder...

The "Y" stick keeps it off the ground so you can get under it...

Once a blaze add your fuel and get that fire roaring...

Enjoy!
