[QUOTE="logbutcher, post: 2313030, member: 4440"] Part ditto: there's always plenty of scraps around after felling, enough "organic" :) firestarting wood from dead spruce/fir/pine droppings. Go to any older softwood stand to pick up sticks. Maybe spend a couple of hours when nothing else is on the plate, to pick up kindling enough for a season's worth of starting. The splinters from splitting are enough for many many starts. Butt--when the 24/7 heating begins, the fires go until out, or we're gone for more than a long day. We use the blowdown softwoods for shoulder season fires, now that the market for pulp here has died. So much down that much of it is just cut up to rot in place. A waste. JOMWTB [/QUOTE]
