Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
TLDW, shavings from a dead standing pine with dried resin wood make a good fire starter.
Worth a watch though
This guy was on Townsends, he's pretty damn good at what he does.
I watched this video a few months ago!
Does anyone else get /r/forbiddensnacks vibes from the thumbnail? lol
If you're in the mountains of the West, and see a lightning-struck evergreen, it may have fatwood. Young bristlecone pines are basically made of it; the heartwood is all deep orange, and the cones are so resinous they're actually sticky. I saw a couple of young bristlecones in Colorado that were splintered open not far below timberline.
I got some fat wood I can show ya... . . . . . . . .
I'll show myself out
Came for some laughs, learned something mildly interesting.
Nothing feels better than finding an entire fallen tree made of fat wood.
dude is militant about his fatwood.
When is the video for "Becoming a tank for beginners" coming out
