There is so much wilderness out there. Completely free to access. Well you are not really supposed to camp in the wild in many countries but who cares? For those willing to brave it out there I highly recommend you get a nice hammock. The camping experience goes up no end. Not only does it solve the issue of not find soft, flat ground in the wild but it reduces the amount you have to carry. No inflatable mattress or tent. Just a hammock and a lightweight tarp. After a bit of practice, putting them up and taking them down takes minutes. You can get a wonderful nights sleep.

    Edit: Nevermind. There is nothing new under the sun. Just brands and brands and brands.

      I’ve never heard of them. I’m surprised they exist.

      Edit. I think they are stretching the term portable. They look heavy.

      • If they could make one that was maybe 3 lbs and held up to 250 lbs of weight, it would be pretty amazing. But yeah. I can only imagine it would be like carrying around my bike frame. It would still be pretty heavy if you’re hiking. I remember being on a trail where ounces added up to too much weight.
