Good challenge for thinking outside the box. I can definitely start fires with easy choices such as strike anywhere, waterproof matches and bic lighters, and the like. My most recent practice was learning how to use the rocket stove I bought.
However, I played the what-if game of “I do not have matches or lighters or an open flame stove top and the electricity is off.” Now what? Well, as this is a cloudy day and my efforts at starting a fire using a magnifying glass have not worked, nor do I have one of those flint thingys…bottom line in this scenario, I will be eating cold super tonight and if it were cold outside, I would also get pretty cold without fire.
Lesson learned…I’m ordering one of those
