Fire tending

As you tend your fire, remember that the type and size of wood affects how hot and quickly it burns, and that wood left in the round burns slower and hotter than split wood.

Safety first. Outdoor activities carry real risks. Each activity guide has safety notes, but you are responsible for yourself and anyone in your care. Supervise children, get permission, never eat anything you cannot identify with certainty, and only light fires where it is allowed and safe.
