Fire and the ability to make a fire, even in horrible conditions, is one of the big 3 survival priorities (fire, shelter, water). This is why it tops our Fieldcraft essentials list. Having a solid fire kit (and knowing how to use it) in your pack is key to being able to reliably make a fire when it counts most. You and your mates are off exploring and one of you falls into icy water. You have to be able to make a fire NOW. Can You? Do you have the tools to do so? This is why we need a fire kit. With fire you can stay warm, purify water, signal for help, stay safe from predators, cook food, lift morale, see in the dark, and be the envy of your fellow guys.
