Camping Fan

So now you have a tent…Congratulations!

Now what are you going to put in it?

Air mattresses, sleeping pads, sleeping bags or just pillows and blankets?

Again it all depends on where and when you are going camping.

If you are going winter camping in North Dakota your sleeping equipment will be very different then if you are camping in July in Florida.

Air mattresses are great in the summertime for especially for those that have not been camping a lot but in the winter they are not such a good idea…the air inside them gets really, really cold and will suck the heat right out of your body.

As far as sleeping bags go, do you want a bag that is a little more spacious or one that conforms to your body? Do you need a 40 degree bag or a -40 degree bag? Will you be carrying it on your back or in your car?

Lots of questions, please take the time to properly consider who, where and when before you purchase because if you buy the wrong bag the person who is sleeping in it will be miserable and potentially very sick.
