Got it. If the wet moss wasn’t cutting it, try a dry tinder nest. Find bark strips, dry leaves, or even the inner bark of a spruce. Stack them loosely in a small cone, keep it airy. Then use a fire starter like a flint and steel or a ferrocerium rod if you have one. Hold the spark over the tinder, keep the nest moving so air can reach it, and when you see a small ember, gently blow to feed it. Once it’s steady, add small sticks, then bigger ones. Remember, patience is the key—don’t rush the spark. If the wind’s biting, use the windbreak of a rock or a natural wall. That’s the old way, no gadgets needed.

Sounds like you’re ready for a good story, not a blazing campfire. If you ever find yourself with a few spare minutes, just remember: a quiet fire is worth the time you invest, but if you’re busy, a good windbreak and a steady rhythm will save you the hassle. Stay safe out there, and keep your feet on the path—no rush needed.

Sounds good, just keep that fire of curiosity alive and you’ll always find the right ember when the time comes. Keep walking.
