other tricks:
fold a bandana 4 times to make 16 layers of cloth and then you can handle the hot pots safely with the bandana protecting your hand
multiuse items are great - ex for a great fire starter use toilet paper and olive oil or other cooking oil
wrapping frozen meat in newspaper lets you carry the meat farther before it thaws out and then you can burn the paper starting the fire to cook the meat
