In order to begin building the Campfire, material must be gathered that will be burned in the Campfire. The Camping Guide from LoveTheOutdoors. com classifies the three types of wood that will be needed to build a successful campfire: tinder, kindling, fuel. Use material that is already on the ground and is dry, using fresh cut or wet wood will make the fire smokier and is more difficult to catch fire. Pile the firewood a couple yards away from the fire so that it doesn’t catch fire
Place your campfire Tepee from campfiretepee. com in your fire pit. Loosely place lots of tinder around the middle of the Campfire tepee. Place a little kindling around the tinder. Lean 3 pieces of fuel wood against your campfire tepee, one at 12 o clock, one at 4 o clock, and one at 8 o clock.
