Oh, to be a capable outdoorsy woman. Even better, an outdoorsy woman with access to so many time and energy saving options! Forget about having to rely on a big strong man to carry around everything. I remember the first time I packed the truck up with all our gear for camping and equipment for boating for a fortnight camping trip. I was amazed that I did it! All by my lonesome! At that moment I realized that the door of backpacking, hiking and camping no longer needed to be opened for me because I can do everything myself.
Of course it helps when the items weigh so much less than expected. If you check out the Black Diamond Apollo Lantern you’ll see what I’m talking about. It’s about the size of a can of soup and only weighs 11 ounces. Another great item to add to our list of light camping gear. Of course it has all the bells and whistles including fold down legs, a dimming switch for adjusting brightness, 3 watt LED and frosted (no glare) globe. This mighty little lantern has a top ring for hanging on a tree branch or from the special loop in the Big Agnes Tent! Check out my November 27th blog for the scoop on the Big Agnes Tent. Happy camping and illuminating your wonderful world!
