I just wanted to drop a note of thanks to all who have shared an abundance of information on this forum. :thumbup:

Yesterday while hiking, I came upon a recently felled Slash Pine tree. When I looked at the stump, it was all fatwood. I would not have been able to even look for, let alone find any, without the guidance that I have taken away from this place. I took out my blade and batoned off a few nice chunks.

Just thought that I'd share. :)

Aaaah ... nature's gold

Congrats on the find.

I thought gold was natures gold :confused:.

:p

Congrats Chris. You'll need to find more. The piece you found will go quick because you'll need to show everyone how cool the stuff is. :D
 
Nice score! Once it dries out I am going to go looking around here.

If gold is natures gold, that means fatwood is even more valuable than :eek:

Nope. Nothing is more valuable than that, provided I'm thinking what you're thinking. :p

Anyhoo, the wood was sticky indeed, and I used hot water to remove it from the knife. I will go back with an empty pack and line it with a plastic bag and load what I can carry. Just need to find the time.
