Gear Review , Pillow for a nights rest.

OK OK, I know when doing a long distance hike it is important to keep your weights down, some folks get meticulous when it comes to their weight and do not take anything extra. I agree with some points of that But still like to be somewhat comfortable. One of the Items that did this for me was a pillow, I picked the sea to summit aeros pillow but there are cheaper models available out there. A hiking companion along the Long Trail had a cheaper brand from Amazon and his worked fine throughout the trip. I did like the Sea to Summit pillow for a couple of reasons, It was easy to inflate and deflate, It was easy to put back in the small bag provided. Of course it was light weight. It was built with a natural curve that was comfortable while sleeping on your back....although when camping with my wife she would wake me while sleeping on my back, something to do with the snoring....I tried to explain I snore when I sleep and I was sleeping...sorry to digress Yes the pillow, it will also work well not just for camping/hiking but also for plane or car travel. As I mentioned earlier there are different brands out there with different shapes and sizes so you have to get what works for you BUT  this Sea to Summit Aeros Pillow worked great for us...now if I was only allowed to snore!
