Re: nightlight on campouts

At Camp Tesomas in Northern Wisconsin, the camp provides a lantern and
20lb tank at each outhouse. Units light them at night and let them run
overnight. The location is far enough away from the tents that the light
is not irritating, but it is sufficient to get your bearings if you wake
up, and it certainly is a help to those who need to make use of the
facility at night. When the gas is out, the camp replaces the tank. It
is an excellent feature of the camp.
