The Relationship Cure: A 5 Step Guide to Strengthening Your Marriage, Family, and Friendships
If you are going to be taking a camping trip, one of the most important things will be building a fire, and while you might have thought that building a fire while camping is as simple as stacking some wood and lighting it on fire (and while it is, in fact, sometimes this simple!), you will usually have to know a few more things than just this. Before you hit the road to take your camping trip - regardless of whether you are going by yourself, with friends, or with family - these are some specific things you should make sure you know before you try to build your campfire. Before you do anything else, you will want to make sure it will be legal for you to build a fire where you are going; if you are camping at a campsite, this will be important, as there will usually be people there who police things and make sure no fires are being build where they should not be, and if you are going camping in the woods, this will be even more important, as building a fire in an illegal area could lead to a forest fire! You will want to prepare for your fire by digging a pit in which you can keep the fire, stacking rocks around it to make sure the fire does not spread, and then you will want to make sure that you have enough extra wood handy that you will not have to go searching for it when you need to add to the fire. The easiest part of building a fire will be actually building the fire - simply stack the wood in such a way that air will be able to flow through it, then add some dry tinder underneath and get the fire going! You should consider bringing dry tinder with you, as this will keep you from having to scrounge around for it when you are trying to build your fire, and you should also bring matches and a flint (in case the matches get wet), as this will help you ensure that you will be able to get your fire going!
