I like using a bit of fatwood when I start a fire in my fire ring. It helps get the rest of the kindling going. I usually buy a bag of it at the store.
I've thought about trying to find it in the woods, but I haven't made the effort yet. Perhaps this year... 😊

Yeah i'm def going to carry a chunk in my pack from now on. We have quite a lot of birch around here but not always where i need it to be.
Some shredded birch bark in a bag in the pack could be a good idea also.
