Fire Making on a Rainy Day

Day 2. I hike back out to my camp in pouring rain to attempt to build a fire. This video is shot after 72 + hours of continuous rainfall. I was glad to have the opportunity to practice this essential skill in these conditions.

Hornby Fun with Fire

What a beautiful day today! We ended it with a campfire in our firepit. The wood was wet and we tried hard to keep it burning by blowing on it but we almost gave up. Then Craig came up with the great idea to use our portable air mattress inflator. Under the moon we relaxed while blowing the fire up with the inflator. What a great idea! It sure gave us a new respect for wildfires and wind…scary!

“Fire and Water” by Nutnfancy (’Summer Snow’ Actual Pt 4)

Nutnfancy wilderness outing vids are pretty much like a reality TV show at this point. As “Summer Snow Episode 4″ picks up, you come along for our firemaking exercise as it continues at high elevation. My philosophy on it has been covered in other TNP vids but here I have to instruct my son in it. It’s a skill that must be practiced and fully understood. In good weather, dry conditions, and low wind, firemaking is easy. But we practice worse case here, getting to dry wood and its sharp edges by cutting down and batoning some dead wood. Tools are the excellent Sawvivor backpack saw and Ontario Spec-Plus Gen II SP-46 (reviewed separately). We practice safe cutting too;: a bad cut up here could mean bad things. A gratifying fire results (note all unburned wood was extinguished, dispersed, hidden afterwards to prevent eyesore). No fire ring was needed or made for this temporary practice blaze. We get distracted by Allie’s antics in the mountain ponds as she gets to practice some “duck” retrieves. Then water adventure ensues with Last Suspect and “dogness” going out in the awesome Sevylor Trailboat. Danger lurks in the 40ºF water and we take appropriate cautions (discussed in vid). The funnest and safest rafting takes place on the ponds where the wind is diminished. Great memories. Dinner time rolls around as video length time runs out. . This was Day Two of our Summer Snow adventure. Thanks for coming along. /////////////// Music: “Hidden Blues” by Pitx used under license
