Sleeping Bags & Pillows

Sleeping Well On The Bank

Get a bag rated for colder weather than you think you need, since it’s easy to open one up on a mild night and impossible to add warmth on a cold one. A decent pillow makes more difference than people expect, and a thermal bedchair cover underneath you matters as much as the bag on top — most of the cold comes up through the bedchair, not down from the air. Air everything out at home after a damp session rather than leaving it rolled up, and it’ll stay warm and fresh for years.
