Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Look up a youtube channel called NorwegianBushcraft, he has 2 vids on making fire starter pads. One of them he mixed a lamp oil with the wax and seams to work better.

Had the Swamp Rat out in the snow again this weekend. Made quick work of a couple trees. I am still impressed every time I take this thing out. Such a beast at splitting.
Had some others out also. On the table is:
Swamp Rat Rodent 9
Esee Jungals
Esee 5
Esee Laser Strike
^ good collection
Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he is too old to Fight, he'll just kill you.
I was camping, with the second ex, a couple of years ago. One of the few times I batoned wood, this knife came out. Blew through some dead 3" aspen. The 2nd ex exclaimed "I want that knife!". Well, If you hadn't become the 2nd ex...
Yes, dogs and knives outlast relationships.

Winter backpacking is just like anything else, if you have the right equipment life is easy. I actually prefer it. There is a different kind of quiet back there in the winter, gives me that extra peace to recharge the batteries, and there are normally no other people. I've heard you also receive double punches on the man card. Haha!
Damn, he just mancard challenged all of us
