    CAMP TIPS AND SMART IDEAS
    There's got to be a million of them...
    SO? What can you share with other Camping Babblers?
    This is what I use to mark my black guy lines when in base camp.

    I use the yellow swimming pool noodles. I cut them into three sections. You can get them dirt cheap at the good ol Dollar Store. They are especially good for day time use.

    I use the MSR tabs when I'm in the interior. They easily pick up any kind of light.

    You can also use these too.

    This is what I use for a bear bell outside my sleeping tent.

    The old fashion dinner clanger. I also use it to summon the group in the case of emergencies or just the call for dinner.

    I use motion lights in the dining area and on large trees to light up the area.

    I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR TIPS!

  3. Hi. Thanks for the outlined life hacks, but personally I use Energizer metal led torch to light up the area. The motion lights seemed uncomfortable and cumbersome to me because I kept forgetting it when I was going out camping, and the led torch was tiny and always with me in my tackle box.
