Self-sustaining fire using entirely WET WOOD. This upside-down fire method burned for over 12 hours for us using the wettest wood we could find off the forest floor. We also show FLINT & STEEL fire ignition using natural tinder straight from the wild that has not been charred. Self sustaining fires can be a life saver in a survival situation by providing long burning consistent heat while at the same time conserving your time and energy. Knowing how to build a Fire lay that can utilize wet wood without any maintenance is an incredible skill to have in situations where dry wood is scarce.
