Non-preppers might know how to build a decent fire for camping. However, every prepper knows how crucial fire building skills can be to your survival, especially if you are in the wild for days at a time. As Bob Hansler shows us in this amazing video, you can build a self-feeding fire that lasts for hours and hours that is the perfect fire for when SHTF, it could mean the difference between life and death!
This self-feeding fire is so mind blowing. It is important to make sure you get the right angles on your branches for loading your logs so they fire burns for as long as possible by itself. It also very important to make sure that you don't allow much oxygen to get through, only on the top and the sides so the fire will burn very slowly.
You should also place sticks between one of the logs to help the fire get started. It may take a while to get just right but once you do, this fire will may be the key to your survival!

Has anyone tried a Dakota fit hole. I haven’t tried it yet but am planning to.
Obviously you’ve never spent a night in the north woods. I spent several years in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, a couple of which were on the Marquette County Sheriff’s Department Search and Rescue Team. Have you ever camped out at -25 degrees below zero? Try it sometime.
I have camped out hundreds of times in every kind of weather. Started when I was in Boy Scouts and kept it up through most of my life. Never had a time when I couldn’t get up and put wood on a fire.
Don’t bother me I’m sleeping.
Logs that big would just smolder, they need to be split!
