The three components of fire
• Fuel
• Heat
• Oxygen
![Page 4: Fire. Entrance Question List 5 uses of FIRE List and describe 3 different types of fires.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062222/5697bf851a28abf838c876bb/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Fuel
• Wood provides the fuel in campfires. The key is to have the correct size fuel for the amount of heat available. (You can’t light a 4 inch round stick of wood with a match.)

Heat
• Heat ignites the fuel and must be balanced with it. Large fuel will not ignite until the heat of the fire rises to a suitable temperature to thoroughly heat the wood. There is usually water vapor close to the ground. The fire should be ignited a few inches above ground level.

Oxygen
• There must be room for oxygen. Allow for ample air circulation and arrange the fuel so that oxygen can get to the fire.

Tinder
• Fine, flammable material which will ignite from the heat of a match.
• Birch bark (collected from the ground), pine pitch or spruce pitch, and fine twigs.
• If the group must depend on fires it is important to have a plastic bag of these materials for a rainy day

Kindling
• Small diameter branches (3/4” or less) or split wood which will ignite from the tinder
• Softwood such as pine, spruce and cedar are very suitable for kindling.

Fuel
• Firewood which provides coals and uniform heat for cooking.
• Hardwoods such as maple, birch, hickory and apple do an admirable job of providing good coals for cooking.
• Only collect wood that is already down. Collect enough to maintain your fire. Collect wood of different sizes.

Lighting the Fire• Don’t be afraid to use paper if it’s available.• Remember that heat rises, so when striking a
match, try to hold the lit end higher than the rest of the match.
• Light the fire upwind so the heat generated will be blown towards the fire and not away from it.
• Homemade or commercial fire starters made from paraffin and paper can be carried for lighting fires in moist or emergency conditions.

• Light the upwind side so the wind blows the flame into the fuel
• Leave air space between pieces of wood• Build UP not OUT
