ALPS Mountaineering Cot
Best heavy duty sleeping solution for car camping enthusiasts.
This low-profile cot is the ultimate upgrade for campers tired of sleeping on uneven ground. While it adds a bit more weight to your pack than a simple pad, the trade-off is a stable, elevated platform that transforms a cramped tent into a legitimate bedroom.
