The @treadlitegear MKIII Rechargeable Ultralight Cuben Fiber Lantern My copy only weighs 10 grams! I’m going to be testing this lantern on my upcoming hike in a couple of weeks. I’ll keep you all posted with my tests. So far I’m impressed when I compare it to its predecessor which only weighed 8 grams but was powered with 2x CR2016 batteries and was a pain to operate.

For the first few hours of the evening the skies remained clear and I was able to experiment with my camera shooting a series of night photos. It defiantly helped to own a photogenic tent which complemented the scene. In this shot I used the natural lighting in the background with extended exposure, whilst I used a camp lantern to light up in the Ultamid 2. Then I shined my headlamp to light up the bottom righthand side in the foreground. No flash was used. ・・・ #outdoorsadventures #hiking #hikingtrail #hike #outdoors #hikingadventures #lightweightbackpacking #ultralightbackpacking #backpacker #backpacking #trekking #denmark #køgeåstigen #hyperlitemountaingear Ultamid 2 #hmgtribe #whereverlitetakesyou ・・・ Photo taken with: Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II

This small forest is only 30 minutes south of Copenhagen. The Køge Stream Path (Køge Å Stien) passes through here. The trail is a 22 km long cycle and footpath that follows Køge Stream from Køge to Borup. ・・・ #outdoorsadventures #hiking #hikingtrail #hike #outdoors #hikingadventures #lightweightbackpacking #ultralightbackpacking #backpacker #backpacking #trekking #denmark #køgeåstigen ・・・ Photo taken with: Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark II
