When you’re camping it can help to categorize your gear so you don’t forget anything (cooking, day activities, night time arrangements ext). One item that I typically overlooked as a beginning camper was my pillow. For many avid campers a lightweight pillow is an absolutely necessary part of their sleeping gear. Anytime you plan on spending the night in the outdoors it helps to be comfortable, a good night’s rest makes the adventures of the following day much more enjoyable.

Anytime you go camping a good night sleep is definitely something you will want to have. It all starts with what you are sleeping on. Unless you are totally fine with sleeping on the ground you’ll want to invest in other sleeping options: cot or air pad (or maybe both). You will want to go with something that is lightweight yet comfortable at the same time. Especially if you plan to also use it for backpacking.
