Unlike most people I know, I am a night person. I find myself more comfortable and alert in the cold night than in the heat of the day, and prefer the darkness over the intense light. Naturally, I like going out more at night than during the day. The things I like to travel with at night are:
A black hoodie or trench coat
Black gi pants
A standard back pack
Three nalgene water bottles
Matches
A pocket knife
Gloves (preferably fingerless or snow gloves)
Light-weight if traveling alone
3 days worth of food (more for longer distances)
Flashlight and extra batteries
I find it better to be unseen in this way I am not stopped or intruded upon. On a side note, I wear most of the clothing mentioned above during the day, just in different colors to reflect the sun and keep it off my skin. Obviously, the few times I have traveled through urban areas have gotten me strange looks from people, but I have usually gone through the wilderness just fine.
Anyone else out there night travelers?
