  Hiking is a popular recreational pastime in Arizona, as a get-away from urban living, while enjoying the beauty and wildlife of nature. Hiking season runs all year in Arizona. Of course, with unpredictable weather and fires, some trails may be closed anytime during the season. The websites for the area will usually inform you of any closures or cautions and we provide links for most of the trails in our directory Search Tucson Pictures

Sparkie Fire Starter

      The compact Sparkie Fire Starter from Ultimate Survival Technologies. This is a clever one hand use self contained flint and steel fire starter. We were recently given the opportunity to review these fire starters and these are the initial photographs we took before using them. These are just over two inches when closed and have a solid loop for attaching a lanyard or keyring. These are available in either orange or tan color with black trim.

From the Ultimate Survival Technologies Website:

http://www.ultimatesurvival.com/images/UST-LOGO_2.jpgSparkie™, the newest fire starter from Ultimate Survival Technologies, features one-handed operation in a lightweight, compact design.

Built on the premise of the original BlastMatch™, Sparkie™ can be operated with one hand and start your fire even in the most adverse weather conditions.

Weighing less than one ounce, Sparkie™ is approximately one-third the weight and less than half the volume of its big brother the BlastMatch™. It features a reconfigured striker tab enclosure and spark bar. The compact body has a rubberized grip wrap giving you maximum control and comfort during use.
