I've written about what to bring to a camp to start your fire on a cold winters night out in the elements. Now, here's a simple tip that will turn your modest fire into an instant coat shedding scorcher.
On any road in the world where big 18 wheel trucks travel, there are those long black truck tire strips laying on the side of the road from a truck tire blow-out. Some folks out my way call'em "alligators." Pick one of these fire enhancement strips up the next time you'll be starting a camp fire.
Once you get your small fire going good, put the tire strip on top, then pile green wood on top of that. Within 3 minutes your camp fire morphs into a bondfire as the tire strip ignites the green wood for an extreemly hot fire!
This is something to keep in mind in case your leaving the city/burbs during a SHTF event.
