@outdoor.devin: Hiking in the dark solo freaks a lot of people out. Carry a high-lumen pocket flashlight alongside your headlamp to scan the trail ahead for wildlife and build quick confidence on early starts. Save this quick tip for your next night hike. #nighthiking #outdoorlife #hikingsafety #headlamp #hikingtips
I was fine hiking 14ers in the dark starting at midnight or 2am for YEARS…then I suddenly became hyper-aware of mountain lions one year 😳 it was only then I got totally sketched out until the sun came up.

I was in Hurricane Ridge and all of a sudden this eerie feeling came upon me that something was watching me. Left right away. And it was only 9pm!! 😂

On my last hike I was so scared at first, I’m normally just fine hiking early mornings, but I was in a bad headspace and every little sound made my heart jump, one time there was a huge bird that made a ton of noise taking off near me, I almost threw up from how much is scared me. And my headlight died so I only had my backup flashlight, very scary.

I love hiking in the dark but the noises and creatures are a bit freaky. So many nocturnal creatures

I've been hunting and camping most of my life. Not a problem. The other day, wanted to snag some pictures of the milky way, so went to an extra dark location, and for the first time I got nervous. I always have my lights, knowledge of the location, and this time 5 minutes in, I left.
