As a challenge, sure. "One Match Challenge" is another thing you can try.
But in a survival/emergency situation when you need fire _now_, absolutely not.
I carry a few road flares with me. Two in my pack (both snow and moto pack), two more on my sled; both rolled up in a gallon-size baggie.
Easy to torch off (striker's built into the cap, they'll light with a lighter too) and they burn fuckhot for about 15 minutes. If you can't get a fire started with that, you probably shouldn't be in the woods on your own.
>Pic relatedI also carry a handful of Bics, again, a couple in my pack and a few more on my sled.
Since I have an engine/fuel in my vehicle, I can use some of that to kick things off.
Usually when I start fires innawoods, it's a matter of gathering some wood into a pile, wetting it with gasoline, and a quick strike from a lighter to touch it off.
If I really had to, I could pull a spark plug on my sled/bike and pull/kick the engine over to make a spark.
