Its kind of fun until you get hounded by moths and your night-vision gets shot. Oh, and the beavers fricken hate it for some reason, they will literally go out of their way to sneak up on you out of the black, pull up alongside and tail slap resulting in a torrent of ice water pouring over you. Nothing says peaceful nighttime stargazing like a 40 pound bucktoothed rodent going out of his way to scare the bejesus out of you.
