Learn the basic principles of fire-starting, land use laws, and how to procure burnable material in the notoriously damp PNW.
We will walk through the woods together, collecting tinder materials and firewood while learning ethics of foraging and harvesting burnable materials.
Each person will build their own fire without a lighter and employ a no-fail method taught by field trip leader, Jazmen Yoder.
Firelighting is the most important bushcraft skill to learn. If you want to increase your preparedness for a survival situation through learning how to procure the right materials to successfully start a fire with only a knife and a simple fire tool, this class is for you! This class will take place rain or shine.
