12 Hours of Darkness PART 1 - Military Surplus Overnighter
I return to #Camp Coyote to overnight packing my #militarysurplus LBE belt (load bearing equipment), MOLLE pouches (modular light-weight load-carrying equipment), wool blanket and an MRE. It is inclimate winter weather with sleet and freezing rain early and temperatures drop close to freezing over night. Firewood is a crucial component to keeping warm once the day is gone. I gather a lot of wood and make a #bushcraft chair for the shelter. It was a struggle to stay awake to keep the fire going all night and the quality of wood was not up to par. Having more hard wood would have made things better.
I found myself counting the hours until first light. I remember thinking "This is like 12 hours of darkness.....7 pm to 7 am. The cold and fatigue probably had an effect on my judgement, nevertheless, I made it through.
There were sounds of wildlife in the darkness as I did what was needed to survive the cold night. I wanted to prove to myself that I could make it all night with no sleep and no warm sleeping bag or sleep mat. It was a good learning experience and after all, I just enjoy being in the woods.

For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be known or brought out into the open. Luke 8:17
And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Romans 8:28
