Exactly, why not one of those long nosed gas lighters?
Way back when the mountains were still cooling we used to have a battery
powered gas lighter. They were common in England at the time for
lighting
your gas oven or grill or cook top burners. Again
and meet Aurora, Nakita and Nanook at our polar bear habitat.

One more thing about the gas lantern problem; would it be helpful to form a
inverted cup and attach that to the lanterns to shield the match opening
from the wind. Get a metal measuring cup or food can, cut it in half and
fasten it so to shield the opening.

Where
please don't take this as sarcastic; but how about a twig? How about 3 or
4 matches secured in a pair of long tweezers?
Stagger the heads of 3 and 4 so they light later down the wood and give
you renewed ignition.
How about one of those long nozzled candle lighting devices? They take
