take some wood and make a bit of a platform
puddles have a tendency to get deeper, and bigger
take a big piece of pine bark, from a piece of wood about 6 or 8 inches in diameter and about 8-10 inches long
put lots of little bits of birch bark in it
and some wet twigs (as if there’s anything dry left when you’re trying to light a campfire in a puddle!!!)
light the birch bark
put another piece of pine bark, about the same size as the first one, over the lit birch bark
place this gently on the aforementioned platform
add some sticks and logs
add some more birch bark, just to be sure
enjoy your blazing puddle fire
ps - the water in the puddle get’s warm - you can take a nice mud bath
