I still prefer the written word, but there is a lot to be said for video when it comes to demonstrating certain things.Scott B.

I've often wanted to record things on video myself, because sometimes the written word just doesn't quite get the idea across.

I read about this earlier in your blog, but haven't had a chance to try it - will likely be going out this weekend for a deer hunt, will give it a go!<br /><br />Thanks again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6836343905945224980.post-76215260731321280362010-11-10T11:26:36.743-06:002010-11-10T11:26:36.743-06:00Coals are great to cook over when you have time to...Coals are great to cook over when you have time to generate them. The point of this method is that it's quick, if you need to purify water, make coffee or cook some wild greens or rice or whatever while on the move. <br /><br />The heat is actually very manageable with the small twig fire. In the video I have the flames larger than they need to be just to show how fast it brings water to a boil.<br /><br />I sometimes use three stones as I mentioned, in rocky areas. Here along the rivers where I live and in many other areas I've traveled, stones larger than small gravel are unavailable.<br /><br />Along the rivers, a quick scrubbing with sand will clean off the soot. A quality stainless steel pot works best.Scott B.

I prefer burning a little hardwood and raking a few coals out of the fire to cook over. Three stone set far enough apart to support your pan and the heat is much more predicable and manageable and the pots generally don't get as sooty.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
