How do you keep your sleeping bag dry while its raining?

Kim asked:


So I am going on a camping trip tomorrow and we won't have tents and we have to sleep under the stars. so im worried that it will rain and i heard there is a special way to wrap up your sleeping bag with a tarp to keep it from getting wet. My question is how?

    It’s not a wrap, but you use it as shelter. Here’s some ways:

    You can just use really big trash bags as a waterproof cover for the bag.

    The easiest way I know how is to fold the tarp around your sleeping bag and duck tape the edges. Making the tarp a pocket for the sleeping bag. (tip: remember to leave enough overlap of the tarp at the top so you can fold it over your head if it really does start to rain.)

    - I hope this was helpful when I did it we used plastic sheeting cut to size instead of a tarp but the same principles should apply

    Funny u should ask. I just got back from campin. I use a 8×10 tarp. I lay it in a nice grassy spot, lay on half, and fold it over me. Havent got wet yet.

    Wrap the sleeping bag inside at least 2-3 layers of strong trash bags. If the rain goes bad, wrap yourself in trash bags too.
