I plan on solo camping if Schuylkill County will release its grip on me. There are things that go bump in the night. The trick is knowing the danger exists.

One of my favorite memories of hunting was encountering a pack of coyotes well before daybreak on the way to a deer stand. I could hear commotion all around me; the silence, that’s the scary part. After I climbed the tree to about 20 feet and my scent was eliminated, I sat back with a full moon and listened to them bark all around me as they regrouped.

This new high-tech toy will afford you that luxury. No awakening to find an unaware bear peeking his head into your tent while you’re sleeping. Now you grab your light, bear spray, and gun, and have a seat. You can give this bear a heartache and send him running; most are just hungry and curious or watch the show.

Naturally, it has AI that learns to filter out useless and irritating false alarms; I want one.
