I need some expert in camping needs to settle a score for me.
I camp sometimes with a group I joined in meetup.com. The leader of the camping group as well as some of its members always tell me that a sleeping bag is not enough to "protect" me from the cold ground when I sleep.
We camp in 80 and 90 plugs degree weather in Florida and I have always done fine with a 50 degree sleeping bag but they still insist that I am "not getting enough warmth"
They claim that thermal pads are the rule. I don't use them in warm weather but they always do. Can you please let me know if they are right that I always need a thermal pad?
thanks.
