Tips and Tricks
SAVING BATTERIES - If you’re out in the wilderness with a group of friends, you can work as a team to conserve the life of your collective batteries. For example, while sitting around camp, place a single light source high enough to allow everyone to use it for those always-necessary trips to the woods. If there’s an emergency and if you’re using cell phones to call for help, turn all but one off, saving the others if needed. (FOR THE RECORD - I am NOT an advocate of carrying phones into the wilderness, but there are those who won’t leave home without them).
