Hiking Sleep Under the Stars
Hiking sleep under the stars uses minimal shelter with pads and bags rated for real overnight lows. Ground insulation and weather forecasts are critical.
Hiking sleep under the stars—cowboy camping or tarp setups—cuts pack weight but demands forecast confidence, insect protection, and ground insulation from pad and bag rating. Cold ground steals heat faster than air temperature suggests.
Earplugs and eye masks help in shared camps.
