Fire Skills: This is what we call a pyramid lay or teepee lay. It is laid on top of, and all around, your tinder. The pyramid shape creates a chimney updraft effect and helps get your fire blazing. This is all built before you strike your spark.
You strike your spark into the upwind side of fire setup; meaning any breeze fans the sparks and flames deeper into the fire.
The fuel being used here is rhododendron. Dry rhododendron makes a really good starting fuel.
