Winter Hammock Camping
Переглядів 283День тому
This was a great overnight winter hammock camping trip. My friend Chris joined me hiking out to a camp spot I had found earlier in the year. The hike was 3 miles and the temps ranged from 41 degrees to a low of 22 degrees. The trails were snow covered but were not to bad to traverse. Tee Spring link carlson-adventures.creator-spring.com

    I was looking into those when trying to find a powerbank that will fit in my small EDC pouch. Basically a 21700 battery. You can stick it in a 21700 flashlight. The Wurkkos TS22 flashlight actually has reverse charging so can use any 21700 with it and use it as a powerbank. I think Nitecore has a lantern that uses 21700 so can be dual use.

Enough so that I’ve been a little worried about it .When my “new buddy “(who was actually your buddy first) and I were camping last weekend I had to leave the comfort of my little teardrop camper four times in the middle of the night. I only barely made it to the -4 deg vault toilet 4 times.
