"FIRE, an immense natural power, its been around since the beginning of time, it marks the difference between animal, and man, and sometimes even life and death.
People have always been fascinated by fire. Have you ever longed to walk into the woods and create fire using only the materials you find around you?
Many people you talk to have seen it done on television or film, fewer claim to know how to do it, and fewer still have actually attempted to create fire using primitive methods. But it is a very small band of people who have actually achieved it for themselves.
Knowing how, and being able to, light a fire, in a survival situation can be massively important. It brings warmth, comfort, safe drinking water, palatable food, signal fires for rescue and a huge boast to morale.
We must remember that fire is an ever present danger in the world, and must be treated with the utmost respect at all times.
There are many ways to start a fire. Spend a day studying and practicing many unique, fascinating and ancient skills that embody the very essence of Bushcraft."
