For winter camping, or just regular camping if you’re prone to feeling cold at night, there is nothing more important than warm, cozy bedding. How you insulate your body at bedtime is integral to sleeping comfortably and staying warm throughout the night, and it goes right down to your choice of bedding. Here are a few great bedding items from SunnySports that can help you sleep warmer in the outdoors.
Therm-a-Rest RidgeRest SOLite Mattress – $16.95-$32.95
Sleeping pads for camping are nothing new, and in fact, gear manufacturers are stepping up their game all the time to create the most efficient and comfortable pad on the market. Therm-a-Rest is one of those players, bringing us their RidgeRest SOLite Mattress. The aluminized surface actually boosts warmth by reflecting heat back to your body, and extends product life by making the mattress more durable and resistant to wear and tear. The peak-and-valley design offers an even, comfortable surface to sleep on and is barely noticeable weight-wise when rolled up and packed onto a backpack. Available in 3 sizes.
Getting your sleeping bag and body up off the ground is an essential step in making sure the cold air and condensation of the outdoors don’t creep in while you sleep. If it’s not possible to get off the ground, at least insulate yourself against it with the Exped Multi-Mat. This roughly 3′ x 6′ mat is covered with soft nylon on one side and an EVA foam lining on the other that acts as an effective barrier between you and cold air and moisture. Simply fold it in half and snap together for a lightweight single sleeping pad, or spread out completely to accommodate two people. Also works great as a ground cover for picnics or a day at the beach!
Therm-a-Rest LuxuryLite Mesh Cot – $239.95 FREE SHIPPING!
If you do want to raise your sleeping area off the ground but don’t want to haul around an uncomfortable cot or other inconveniently sized bedding, check out the LuxuryLite Mesh Cot from Therm-a-Rest. This cot defies the old standby of metal frames and canvas, replacing them with lightweight mesh and bowframe technology. 
The components of this cot are lightweight and compact enough to fit inside your backpack — roughly half the size of a yoga mat in its bag! This cot can literally go anywhere with you and be set up within minutes, providing comfortable bedding in the outdoors or wherever your adventures take you!
