[QUOTE="Parks 788, post: 3671709, member: 14646"] I won't recommend any stuff on the tent camping as I would have a rough time enjoying that type of camping in a mummy bag and thin pad. I'm a side sleeper and it would be miserable on my shoulders to have to sleep on the ground. Would get a terrible nights sleep which in turn would make for a miserable time in general. Not sure it was mentioned by the OP but curious what type of camping would require him to use a tent. Is it campground with tent, hiking into the wilderness using a tent or at a "deer camp" with a tent and your car parked next to camp site? The only tent camping I'd enjoy now is with a Canvas Wall Tent. We typically use a nice XXL cot and 42" wide Sleeping back with the option to use a comforter over the sleeping bag for extra warmth. use a 3" foam pad between bag a cot. Sleep like a baby when it is cold out. I'm a firm believer that if my camping was just me a dog the minimum I'd be doing is a small 18'-22" travel trailer, even if a cheap or good used one and use that to sleep in and keep my stuff dry with an easy up outside and a great cooking/table setup. Sort of like a low budget Dennis Hoddy setup. That being said my wife and I are in the market for a nice big travel trailer to vacation in or a midrange 5th wheel. [/QUOTE]
