To Build a Fire with Sparks
Saturday, September 7, 2024, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM
Join Ranger Eric for the 9th of 10 adventures on survival. The ninth workshop in the survival series is about fire making with sparks.
Elevate your fire-making prowess with our Spark-Based Fire Making Workshop, a captivating journey into the art of igniting flames with a flicker and a spark! Venture beyond traditional methods and discover the thrilling efficiency of modern fire craft. This workshop focuses on spark-based techniques, where you’ll learn to skillfully use tools like ferro rods and flint to create a blaze in mere moments. Perfect for those who’ve experienced the friction-based method or newcomers alike, this session offers a dynamic, hands-on approach to learning one of humanity’s most definitive survival skills.
Be prepared for the elements with proper layers, footwear, gloves, and a hand towel. In the case of rain, there will not be an indoor option.
