[QUOTE="anonymous6, post: 1128962"] funny... watching Castaway and the part when he tries to make fire. I know the feeling too. back when i was 19 i rode my bicycle up to Canada in the middle of winter. one day i stopped at the forest service office to ask about the state park i wanted to camp that night. the ranger said it was closed but I was welcome to stay there but he did not recommend it because of the weather. of course I went. the young will live forever. the park was a frozen wasteland and I was cold and hungry. I thought about what I was gonna do . a fire seemed impossible. all the wood was under snow. i took out my rambo knife, dug out some rounds , took a big rock and started splitting the rounds with rock and knife. used the inside parts of rounds to start fire. took awhile but had a roaring fire going and had a nice hot meal. acouple hrs later while staring at the fire i saw some headlights at this closed state park and started to get nervous. it was the forest ranger!!! he drove about 40 miles to check up me cause he was worried. after talking awhile he said "well, i guess you have everything under control." and then he wished me luck getting to Canada and left. that's a good fire memory. a good people memory too.
