[QUOTE="Danny Tanner, post: 1744520, member: 10619"] Besides the plentiful amounts of prairie grasses around here, there's also the fluff from cat tails, which are typically found around water. Another vote for cedar bark, though. We usually camp in state parks that do not allow you to collect wood so we bring our own firewood. We'll always bring a few cedar logs to scrape for kindling. It works well enough when the tree is live, but if it's a dead and dry cedar log, you can just snap your fingers and the stuff lights right up. Use a blade to scrape, not slice, down the tree or log. A palmful is all you need. [/QUOTE]
