[QUOTE="Zeno Marx, post: 477122, member: 1211"] I'm a side and stomach sleeper. I can't do hammocks. Though, I can definitely see their benefit in swamps and particular situations. Between a good ground pad and a good sleeping bag, I prefer the ground anyway. I used to winter camp fairly often in the UP of Michigan. My setup would be: some small tarp fixing around my head to dampen any wind around the face, a ground pad, and then my 0° sleeping bag inside a goretex bivy sac on top of the ground pad. If I had continued living in the area, I would have eventually bought a very expensive down and special fabric more breathable than goretex but still water-resistant sleeping bag just for winter camping. With one of those, I could have removed the bivy sac from my process. [/QUOTE]
