Leon,
On this one, I'm not going to advice on your choices
A large part of bushcrafting is trying these out, seeing what works and making corrections. What I do know is that all the information you need to complete the challenge is available in the books you have or on this site using the search facility (I checked). So for this one mate, plan out what you are going to do, research it (you may decide to burn birch or hawthorn or......but can you spot it when you see it?) then try it out.
Of course some things won't work or you will get stuck - thats what Fenlander is for , but this is about seeing what you can achieve on your own using research tools
