Black Diamond Apollo Lantern

Item #BLD0353 | 71 in Stock
5 Star Rating

It's not a head lamp, but...

By Ranked #655 - Cookware June 11, 2009

I don't own one, yet, but my partner brought one on a Shasta climb/ski, and it was great for getting ready for a 2AM start. Great circle of light, light, compact, etc, but when we went to leave he discovered he left his headlamp in the car. It turns out clipping this lantern to a pack throws plenty of light for skinning and climbing.

I would hope he learned his lesson about not forgetting a head lamp, but this worked so well, he probably didn't.
