How to start a fire in the rain

[mtwarden]

When the chips are down I've got Trioxane tabs; when the chips are really down—I have a small flare (and multiple means for ignition)

The ability to start a fire in shit conditions should be a priority for anyone who hunts in shit conditions

I am into Buschcraft . There are many items you can put in a Altoid tin fire kit. Rain or shine you can make a fire . Some of my items I put in mine.
Fat wood
Flint and steel
Magnifying glass
Fierro rodi
Cotton ball rubbed with Vaseline
Charcloth
Birch bark
Fish hook
Line
and many other items, your choice
A broken nicholson old file makes a good steel for flint and steel
piece of broken hacksaw blade makes a good srtiker for a ferro rod.
If you are interested in survival and fire starting, check out some of the Bushcraft sites.

Sorry for the rant.

These are supposed to weigh 3oz each and burn for 7 minutes. Probably the same as Orion, says Made in USA and a small business. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CTYQ1Z35/
Thinking I'll get a dozen and pass them out in camp this year.

Yup—those are the same it appears. I've gotten a full five minutes of blazing flare out of the ones I use—have started fires in some very challenging conditions w/ them.
