I'M Considering posting a POLL on this question, but anyway here goes:
With the the variation in length of days and nights on the trail, I'm curious to know how this has affected thru-hikers sleep patterns throughout the course of the hike.
For example, I would imagine at the beginning and ending of a typical NOBO thru, over 10 hours of each day would be darkness. Do you sleep that long? Longer? Right now, I can sleep a minute past 8 hours. Of course I'm not thru-hiking either.
