Hunting for King Alfred's Cakes - Daldinia concentrica and bushcraft firelighting
#bushcraft #survival #modernbushcraft
In this video Richard Prideaux goes through how to locate, identify and use the Daldinia concentrica fungus - AKA King Alfred's Cakes, Cramp Balls or Coal Fungus. See below for links to chapters and courses.
This video is a little long for a simple 'locate and identify' piece, but we thought that the additional content with the bow drill firelighting was worth including, especially as it is something we often discuss when teaching fire-by-friction on our modern bushcraft courses.
