idea of a comfortable nights sleep and certainly isn't conducive
to a good night's sleep.
There are a number of products that will help you get a good
nights sleep.

layer of comfort between you and the hard ground, but

Sleeping Bags
Being comfortable and warm at night is important if yo are
going to get the most from your camping holiday, a good sleeping
bag is a key piece of equipment for any camping trip . It's
hard to appreciate a beautiful dawn when you've spent most
of the night shivering in an poor sleeping bag [view
range of sleeping bags].
Here are a number of things you should consider when choosing
your sleeping bag.
- A sleeping bag must keep you warm .
- You also need a bag you can stretch out and curl up in
rather than one that feels like a strait-jacket.
- The filliing in the sleeping bag is important. There are
three types
- down- best warmth for weight ratio packs up smallest
and is long lasting, but loses warmth when soaked and
is slow to dry.
- polyester fill - quick drying, resistant to damp
and reasonably priced but bulkier and heavier than down
- fibre-pile - is warm when wet, quick drying, long
lasting and inexpensive, but again bulkier and heavier
than down for equivalent warmth.
Whatever the fill, sleeping bags come in various weights
and warmth ratings.
Today there are as many varied ways of camping as there are
campers. Camping becomes a personal thing. Even though you
may be away from the warm confines of your cozy bedroom at
home, you still want to get just as good a night's sleep.
