In the summer, I carry a tarp instead of tent on my survival bag. I am looking for something very compact to raise me of the ground. I have read that some people buy a camping foam mat, and then cut it in half so it just supports there hips up, and then use their day clothes in their bag for their feet and legs. I have got an inflating camping mat. Very good, very comfy, love it. However, it is quite large, and I am trying to carry less. What do you guys think? Should I carry a bit more for comfort, or buy a £10 foam mat with a shiny foil side, and cut it in half?
Cheers.
