I had the opportunity to record a presentation with Cliff Jacobson, avid outdoorsman and canoeist. He tells some stories, some jokes, and how to protect your food and yourself from bears. Thanks to Cliff for allowing me to share his insight with all my listeners.

It’s lightweight and runs on the fuel canisters that I am already carrying in my pack. I have never used a gas lantern, so this was my first shot…

I haven’t done gear reviews or demos before, so please forgive the roughness of the video…

Here are some links…

Amazon – where I bought it from

Brunton – the Brunton website

Thanks for watching, please leave a review at iTunes if you like it, and if the response is good, there may be more gear reviews to come!
