water
was riding this weekend & thought about this thread cuz I was on the trail that I made that fire on. Saturday, I forgot my prepped bike water bottles at home so only had 1 convenience store type bottle of water. worked out OK for a cpl hrs of riding in 36-40 degrees, but it occurred me, we were discussing fire, but let's remember
why one might want a fire. meaning: water &/or the ability to melt snow to make drinkable water. or I guess if you find stream water, a fire could warm & or purify it (boiling). so, in addition to fire making,
something to melt snow in, &/or boil water in. wonder what climbers on Everest use
or maybe just a metal cup would suffice

was eyeballing this running water thinking how clean it might be. but in the end was too lazy & not desperate enough to climb down anyway. it sure sounded good tho. babbling brook, etc
