Answer 1

To a certain extent, those midnight walks could be more significant. Get up, rebuilt the fire, have some water, maybe turn over something getting smoked, etc. When night is 16 hours you need to maintain more things before daylight. Also there are plenty of reasons to get up before the sun and some people adjusted to that. Usually to hunt/fish animals active at dawn/dusk.
