5 Natural Fire Starting Tinders in the Winter 

My favorites in order are: Fatwood/Pine Pitch, Birch Bark, Cedar Bark, Tulip Poplar Bark, and Feathersticks/Grass/Anything fine or fluffy. I carry man made tinder like Wetfire, Fat Rope Stick, Mini Inferno, and Trioxane in my Fire Kit, but I always try to use natural materials from the environment when starting a fire. I also have a small tinder bag I carry to collect natural tinder sources. Great informative video.

I live in Northwest Indiana, so I have the exact same resources. Great video. I encourage everyone to go out and scout around for the natural fire starters in their area.

Ben great information in this video. Ben your videos are like Clint Eastwood movies,always good and entertaining to watch. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Take care and God Bless.

Great winter tinder demonstration. A tinder bundle/kit is important. + excellent sponsor

i'm sitting here watching your video and here the r2 d2 ring tone. I had to do a double take because i have star wars attack of the clones on TV. lol

Awesome ideas! Love your work!!! Thank you

Very useful information! I love watching all of your videos brother… Keep up the good work!

Wonderful job ! Very helpful.

Another Slamming vid as always BEN.

Nice infomercial buddy! I hope sales did well! keep it up!!

What I learned from this video. Carry a lighter, because a fire steel as a primary ignition source is less than ideal.

Good tips Ben

Excellent video

Need to send me a pile of that birch bark

Thanks for sharing , God bless !

I wish I had Birch tree in my neck of the woods. Is that a Fiddleback Forge knife?

Nice video. I would like to know what you would use to get a fire going in high wind and heavy rain. Thank you.

Yeah man its a bummer there's no good birch bark down here in Ohio.

Ohhhh R2

谢谢，很有意思

Could you please point me to that specific Hidden Woodsman sack that you keep your tender in? Can’t see it on their site. Also any specific recommendations on a lighter? Thx

Good stuff! That knife though! 🤘🏼what is it?

Was the video made on Tatooine?

That fixed blade is dope AF

Ben , what do you think is the better procamptek product - fast-fire , wax-wood or fat-rope ? :)
