Cotton balls soaked in vaseline make for a long slow burn. Light weight and flammable. Ran into a group on the AT who were using this technique to get their fires going.

Just saw Survivorman use this method to start a fire in his Labrador, Canada episode. He used a metal striker and it went up surprisingly fast. Very cool.
