Tarps, pads and sleeping bags

If you should decide to sleep under the starts, find yourself a level spot and roll out one of the tarps. If your spot is ever so slightly tilted you will have an uncomfortable night. No tarp needed under the tent.

Then get one of the sleeping pads, open the valve and let air in (they are self inflating) close the valve when the pad is thick enough. You can blow more air in if you like it firmer before you close the valve. I have a few thick air mattresses available as well. They have a motor for inflation attached.

You can either use the sleeping bags I am providing as primary bags, or use them as secondary bag with your personal sleeping bag inside. Or as you see in the picture below use one of my bags for more comfort under your sleeping bag.

Please handle them with care and keep them as clean as possible.

You will find that the tarps have a clean and a dirty side. Please lay them down with the dirty side. Fold the dirty side inside when packing up in the morning.
