Tinder catches fire easily and burns fast. Dry pine needles, grasses, shredded bark, and the fluff from some seed pods all make good tinder, so do wood shavings cut with a pocketknife from a dead stick. Gather enough tinder to fill your hat once.
Dead twigs that are no thicker than a pencil are called kindling. Find enough to fill your hat twice.
Fuel wood can be as thin as your finger or as thick as your wrist. Use sticks you find on the ground and gather them from a wide area rather than removing all the downed wood from one spot.
Collect then Dry add enough to start a fire and store in small sealed plastic bag
Each Scout should bring a number of Tinder Packs to help aid their patrols start to start a fire for cooking
