fire making equipment - / faɪə ˈmeɪkɪŋ ɪˈkwɪpmənt / -
noun
Tools for making heat and light accompanied by flame. Most mountain refuges have a wood burner and a good supply of logs but not always the means by which to initiate the phenomenon of combustion. Therefore, if you're hut to hut touring it's a good idea to carry fire making equipment in your pack. If you're planning to spend the night in a snow hole then you'll also want to add a candle to your fire making equipment to act as a CO2 monitor. If you like to pack for every eventuality then it's an even better idea to keep your fire making equipment in your pack at all times.
