Our journey continues as we prepare a kit for the 250th anniversary of the United States, focusing on what a colonial soldier would have carried in the 18th century for lighting devices. This week, we examine various lights essential for bushcraft camping, ensuring visibility after dark. Join us as we explore these aspects of living history and how they relate to the old ways of survival camping!
