When trying to start a fire and things are wet this can be a big help. Find some knot of "sap" on pine trees...It kinda looks like a knot with some icing on it. This stuff burns very well. Chop it up and mix it with your tinder. (that you gathered from scraping into the bark of trees so it's dry) This stuff burns hot and and for a while like wax almost. It will help your fire get started.

Pick locks, accquire canned food!

I don't know a whole lot... can light a fire and cook, sterilise water, make a couple of traps, and I know how to shingle the fuck outta my layers to keep that nasty cold and wind out for as long as possible. Besides that, I got nothing. One thing I would like to know though, when lighting fire I always use steel wool but obviously there's no steel wool in nature... so if I'm using fire steel and I haven't got any wool, is there a good way to get the tinder going faster? I like riffs idea but we don't really have a shitload of pine trees around here.
