Fritos
Saw that hack on one of those survival shows and it worked great, but made me wonder about the wisdom of ever eating corn chips again.

Nice Subaru. You may get a few snide comments, but I think this board generally is welcoming to lesbians.

Badlands was hot a hell, driving up to it is was low 80's and flat land all around, when I go there is was close to 100 and hilly, but amazing to see. Driving up and down Pikes Peak was butt puckering. I also did Rushmore, Yellowstone, Hoover, Grand Canyon, Horeshoe Bend and a ton of other national parks.
Smaller size for cooking and the larger size for camp fire. Easy set up.

What are those individual grilling grates and what all did you eat? What size are they?

You do know that there are built in roof cross bars on the outback? Why are you not using them?

If you are close to any pine trees get some pine cones and let them dry out.
Both my boys are in a scout group, and we had a whole lesson one week about fire starters. Meetings are generally short, and we could have probably knocked out the different ways to stack logs and starting them in one week, but we spread it out over two. I think mainly so we could teach them a few different methods on homemade firestarters one week, and let them make a few different ones and actually use them the following week.
The favorite was TP tubes stuffed with dryer lint, second was a pine cone, third was the cotton balls and vaseline, and last was homemade votive style candles.
Whenever I take my boys camping, I give them a bucket and tell them to fill it up with pine cones and then we can make s'mores. Amazing how fast they bring back 5 gallons of pine cones. It has also let me teach them that the larger ones that are opened up are ideal, and the smaller ones that haven't don't really do anything. A half dozen or so big open cones and one match is usually all it takes to get the fire going if the ground hasn't been soaked.

Next time just bring a bag of dryer lint
exactly what I was going to say. We have done a ton of camping. I have a bag by our dryer and just add dryer lint to it over time. Add some twigs to it, then the larger sticks, it gets going in no time.

I make them with paraffin wax, dryer lint, and toilet paper tubes.
I make a slightly different version.
Drop balled up dryer lint into an empty egg carton
Pour in melted wax from old used candles or paraffin wax from Wally Mart
Boom! You now have a dozen firestarters
Easy peasy

Mix gasoline and soap until it’s a thick paste. Put that in something you can squeeE stud out of(eg. Ziplock bag, turkey baster, or even just a plastic bottle)

Oh boy… planning on camping at the boondocks spot on the road that heads to Wall. I read it can be windy but I’m not sure we’re prepared for the heat lol.

That Odoland grate, it comes in two sizes. Which of those two did you get (I’m assuming by larger size you meant the second one pictured over the fire).

I use Fritos or corn chips.
Best fire starter. Cheap and effective

I don’t believe you. There is no fire in any of your pics. I’ll stick to my trusty flint stone
