From the caves of yore, to the backyard fire pits of today, a robust fire is one of the cornerstones of civilization and while we no longer rely on roaring blazes to warm our bones or cook our dinners, few things in this world are more civilized than a good old fireside chat. However, there is one hotly debated subject that has been asked since the dawn of time and those of us here at Walden Backyards are more than happy to weigh in on the oft asked question...
Don't act like you and your friends haven't sat around for hours on end debating this hot topic. We are here to help so you can put down your pokers and quit stoking the flames of this controversial issue. We have you covered.

The teepee method requires three or more logs to be leaned against each other at the top to form... you guessed it, a teepee. Wide at the base and coming to a point at the top this method is certainly one of the standard bearers, but is it the best?
And the winner is... Crosshatch all the way.
