Lots of cover....and a good stove Cozy nest you got there. Your pillow should be noted that a good one is also key to a good night sleep. My favorite is a Slumberjack.

I like a cot. To me, air mattresses suck. I put a small roll up pad on my cot. I think the cot is from Gander. It's quite comfortable.

Being able to get a good night's sleep while camping is one of the least considered but most important skills.

Don't mix large quantities of bourbon and beer. It'll kill ya *dead*. You'll wish for a while it will anydamnhow.

At this stage of my life I've become a fair weather camper..... If you look closely you'll see my cot with a big fat pillow on board...there's also a Big Buddy heater in there.....

My BIL and I have used it as a base camp moose hunting in Ontario several times. I had Laacke & Joys in Brookfield, WI refurbish it once rather than look for a replacement.

I haven't compared all of the cots Cabelas sells, but have over 10yrs experience with their Outfitter XL. It's good to go IMO, and appear to have a recent update that makes attaching the end bars much easier.
I place an inflatable thermarest under a rectangular bag and sleep like a baby. I got the same setup. It's as good or better than our regular bed.

Nice set ups. I'm envious. My tents are small, light, and I don't sleep very well when in them. Usually on uneven ground. But, it works and keeps me in the country I want to hunt.

Thanks. Springbar out of Salt Lake City....I love that thing.... https://www.springbar.com/Cabelas sells a Chinese knock off called Kodiak for less but I don't mind paying a little more for US made gear...especially a small family based company.
