Brian uses birch bark to create fluff for starting a fire with a hatchet. He shaves thin strips of the inner bark off the birch tree and then fluffs them up to create a highly flammable tinder that easily ignites with a spark from the hatchet. This fluff helps him start a fire quickly and efficiently in the wilderness.
