The Complete Guide to Firecraft

Light a fire on the first try, and put it out properly every time. This complete guide to firecraft covers when not to light a fire at all, how to pick and prepare a safe site, how to build a fire that catches, and how to make sure it is cold before you walk away.

Ten clear chapters cover how fire works; fire rules and responsibility; choosing and preparing a fire site; tinder; kindling and fuel; fire lays; ignition methods; fire in wet and windy weather; managing and using a fire; and putting fires out and leaving no trace. A full FAQ and glossary round it out.

It is a clickable guide you can keep on your phone, tablet or computer, with free updates for life. Four printables come with it: a Fire Rules Checklist, a Fire Site Safety Card, a Fire-Out Checklist and a Campfire Safety Card.

Digital download. You receive a zip file with the guide (opens in any web browser) and four printable PDFs. Guide text written with AI assistance from the author's outline and technical direction, edited and finalized by Niche & Nuance Studio.
