Default early to rise

Most times when we head out I am always the first one up, I guess it works the same as at home. Who else is a early riser when you are out camping? Are you nice and let others sleep in, most times I head out for a nice quiet walk alone.

Same here. I like to get up, get the coffee going and enjoy the peace and quiet. I like getting up just before dawn. Unless of course it's a really late night, then you have to take full advantage of the morning and get up at the crack of noon.

Unless I am hunting I am generally a late sleeper.

Everyone usually wakes up around the same time when we're camping, although that's not the case when we're at home. We all want to get as much out of our trips as possible though, so we usually wake shortly after sun up when we're on vacation.

I'm always the first one up whenever I'm not sleeping at home in my own bed. I just don't sleep that well or as deep if I'm not at home. I've always been this way, even as a kid.

I'm usually the first one up when camping and I start breakfast so everyone else soon follow.

I'm usually the last one to get to bed, so I tend to be the last one to get up. I am not a morning person, so waking up later and getting a later start usually works best for me.

I find it hard to sleep too late while camping because I always have trouble sleeping as soundly in new places. Elements like the weather and sleeping on the ground don't make for the comfiest of conditions.

I'm usually the first to wake up because I'm out of my own bed; my mind and body has a way of knowing these things. I start cooking up the breakfast!
