Hey, I’ve been working on a fire-starting kit that can still light up when the rain’s pouring. Got any tricks from your wilderness experience that could make my gear even more reliable?

Nice to hear you’re tackling the rain. Keep the tinder completely dry—use char cloth or a compressed tinder cube; it stays wet‑proof once made. Store it in a sealed, waxed envelope, and put a few layers of dry bark or cedar shavings around it for extra protection. When you’re ready, ignite the char with a small spark or ferrocerium rod; the moisture won’t touch it. Also, carry a quick‑dry tinder dish made from a plastic bag folded over a heat‑proof pad—just a trick to catch any stray sparks if the rain comes at you. Stay calm, check the moisture levels, and the fire should start even when the sky pours.

Sounds solid. I’ll run the tests tomorrow, but if the rain hits hard, I’ll use that plastic bag trick you mentioned. Thanks for the heads‑up.

Good plan. Test early, keep the kit dry, and you’ll have the fire when you need it. Good luck tomorrow.
