I prefer to sleep at night. One of the pleasures I take in camping is that of going to bed at sundown and sleeping until sunrise (unless an early start on the trail is required). I've done virtually no hiking at night.

I comprehend the arguments for knowing how to find and use the North Star but haven't yet found a practical use.

(This includes courses in celestial navigation -the theory- followed by 5 years in submarines where we never even tried it in practice. The sextant was inventoried annually to be sure no one had stolen it.)
