Winter brings long nights and cold temps but on the flip side the bugs and rattlesnakes are gone but not forgotten.

Sometimes I don't make it to camp before dark and the weather isn't always on my side. Following white blaze markers in a white world isn't all that easy. There are times when a low mode just won't cut it. Here I had to backtrack to the last marker and try again to find the next.
Found it!
My long running Fenix and 4sevens lights make it possible to setup camp during a harsh winter night.
Then light up my shelter!
Fenix HL20 never failed me when I needed something small with good throw. I broke the diffuser and not sure where to get a new one. I changed out the Fenix headband with an old PT band.
Warm vs. Cool tints winter camping style.
Deep snow with lows of -14F.
4/7s Quark mini XP-E Q3-5A doing its thing.
No shoeshoes and jacket no service….
Goes without saying following my snowshoe tracks back is kinda easy.
Fenix LD10 R4, Mora knife and Ti mess kit.
4/7s Maelstrom flashlight being used to illuminate metal plate targets during some night target shooting. This was done during a group winter campout at a safe range area where it's legal to do so. I don't recommend this being done in the back yard. LOL! The temps hit around-12F that night.

Using my H501w (awesome gear item) to light up a small spring for a late night subzero water run. Notice the nice flood light. My buddy was using a 70 lumen EOS with a nasty green tint. I was a bit taken back by this as both my 50 lumen EOS headlamps have good tints and this makes them look brighter.

I mostly use my LED headlamps for trail and camp work. The flashlights are for backup, more throw if needed and lantern duty. Just looking to thank the CPF community for all the knowledge I have picked up here.
