Geocache Description:

A cache launched to coincide with the Scouting for Skills event.



Fire lighting is a fundamental skill in Scouting. It is vital for cooking, keeping warm and as a focal point for camp activities. As such, being able to prepare, light and maintain different sorts of fires is very important.

Three elements are needed to make a fire: oxygen, heat and fuel. This is known as a fire triangle. Typically, wood is the fuel for a fire, oxygen is provided by the air and the heat comes from a match or spark. If any of these elements are removed, the fire will go out.

Please be careful around the cache site for muggles.
