We might be doing an overnight-er soon. It will get dark at about 4:30 and light again until about 7 AM. I used to love laying in the tent and reading a novel, but somehow now that I am old my joints complain after not to long. I suppose we could play cards for a while, but resting on your elbow(s) or sitting cross legged isn't the most comfortable thing after a while either. I am not sure there is an answer, but the question is: What do you do with 13 hours of darkness on a backing trip? https://www.backpacking.net/forum/images/icons/default/confused.gif
