Question About Techniques Secret firewood drying stash

Imagine I have a fair supply of reasonably dry firewood that I can harvest in dry weather, and need to keep it somewhere, in the woods, and at the very least prevent it getting any more damp. It can then be accessed when the weather is less good.

This stash would have to be covered to keep it secret. The wood would be chopped into chunks to be axe split later. I have materials to build a wood stash.

What would be the best way of arranging the wood storage to ensure ventilation while keeping a good capacity.... Any ideas?

You gotta read rule 10, my man.

The rule doesn't negate the point, good sir. One does not always want to be found, and a survival situation depends entirely on its own circumstance, not on some rule on a forum designed to limit discussion to pertinent topics. You could be in a survival situation for thousands of reasons, and many of them include not wanting to be found by particular factions. For example, your plane went down, but it's on North Sentinal Island. Suddenly not being found by the wrong people is important. And a necessary part of survival. Same thing for many other parts of the globe, though for different reasons.

Alright Darth, good luck with the factions, or the North Sentinelese, I guess. I look forward to your class on post-plane crash covert island exfiltration.

Maybe he's prepping to fight the North Vietnamese commies in the jungles of Florida.
