For the latest trip I took into the backcountry, I went with a friend. The temperatures were so far below freezing that he refused to poop. He couldn’t bear the thought of the discomfort of dropping his pants and exposing all his parts to the open air. So he just refused to poop…
…for five days and nights. True story.
I hope y’all are enjoying your days off with good friends and good food! Enjoy!

Is it worth the trouble carrying one of these on a miles long foot journey through the backcountry? It depends. Sometimes it is worth the trouble, sometimes it ain’t. In my opinion so much of a question like this depends on what other luxuries you’re taking. Taking this lantern usually means foregoing some other luxury.
