A Good nights sleep

  • It well worth using a closed cell or self inflating mat to insulate yourself from the cold ground while you are sleeping. We prefer the self inflating mats, such as 'Thermarest', as these tend to give a comfortable surface to sleep on as well as good insulation and with the chair kits that convert them into comfortable chairs they are certainly worth the extra weight.

     
  • Go to bed warm, otherwise if you go to bed cold it will take you ages to warm up. If you are cold, warm yourself up with a hot drink or some hot food or perhaps take some gentle exercise. If you think it is going to be a cold night, it is better to go to bed with extra clothes on and take them off if you get too hot rather than the other way around.

     
  • If you have a down sleeping bag, get it out of its stuff sack well before you go to bed. This will give it time to loft up and it will then be much warmer.

     
  • A pillow certainly helps for a good nights sleep and there are some good little camping pillows about. An effective pillow is to take a pillow case (which doesn't weight much and is easy to wash) and stuff it with your spare clothes, fleeces etc.

     
  • As mentioned in the equipment list, take a set of earplugs. It helps to cope with noisy neighbours, traffic noise or the local disco!
