Popped up to my dads today, he's got a few silver birch in his garden, I looked one over, a mature tree and it had a nice chunk of bark (several actually) peeling back. I just snapped this off (wont harm the tree). My question is, which bit to use as tinder? The silver, paper like outside will tear into strips quite easily, but looks quite tough. The woody substance behing seems quite hard and well, woodlike.
Which bit is the "super-tinder"?
I'm guessing mabe the silver, paper stuff, shredded up - yes?
