Or I'll spend that night in front of a fire, making clean water and cooking. This means I do most of my sleeping outdoors, which mean that many nights I have enough light to read books / mend gear / process rosehips etc. If you're not playing Pilgrim, eventually Cabin Fever will kick in, and you'll want to minimize your indoor time for essentials. I've found the most useful time to do stuff in is late morning through early evening - it's warmest and gets the majority of light, so I work around that.

Don't hesitate to take a quick two-hour nap to get your schedule right. Remember that fatigue restores linearly - there's no bonus for a long rest. Or the other scenario that happens a lot where I'm back at my place and it's close enough to sunset that I can't really go out and do much else before night, so I end up just packing it in early instead of waiting around.ĭo you guys basically say fuck it and get a messed up sleep cycle where you just sleep 8 hours and go with whatever time you wake up?

I often find myself just sleeping for 12+ hours everyday because the timing never quite works out right for me to wake up near the morning.
