I don’t know what’s in my Bug-Out Bag, but I’m sure it either has waterproof matches or a flint striker. Maybe both.

A Girl Boy Scout should always be prepared!

Wilderness Survival campout this weekend! She and Frank went to Wilderness Survival Day Camp last year, but this time, she’ll have to sleep in her shelter, presumably with other girls from her patrol.

Flint striker, huh?

You do realize that a butane fueled candle lighter, even when it’s out of fuel, has a spark for ignition, right?

I can’t understand why those you-tube outdoorsmen who spend twenty minutes trying to start a fire didn’t pack some matches or something when they packed up the meat they’re cooking.
