Coleman Lantern Hanger

Elevated light source

The single best piece of gear in my camp pack is the Coleman Lantern Hanger. It’s nothing more than a length of chain you wrap around a tree and a clever, stable hook from which you hang your lantern. It ain’t high-tech, but at eight bucks it provides unbelievable utility. Getting your light source up off the ground not only provides better light at your campsite, it’s also safer.
