Help keeping bag on pad

[Obsessed1]

Hey just wondering how you guys go about staying on your pad while sleeping. I have used the hammock sleep system for years but have been looking at cutting weight so I'm trying a floor less tarp / bag set up. Thoughts are I can cut pine boughs to sleep on or bring a pad. However I move quite a bit and am thinking I'll end up off the pad. I'm not hoping to do the bivy thing as it will just increase weight but I'm not sure of any other options for keeping them together. Thanks

My vote is for pine boughs

Borah Bug Bivy is pretty light. I move a lot in my sleep, and haven't found anything else that works.

Well, other than bringing my Helinox cot....

I've heard a few thin strips of seam grip on the top of the pad will work. If you've used that stuff it makes sense - it's very grippy, but flexible.

I use thin lines of silicon to keep my pad from slipping around in my tent, havent had a problem with my bag sliding on my pad but I'm sure that would work well for that too

Here's a thread I started a few weeks ago

Slippery ground sheet and sleeping pad

Took my new sleep system on a test ride this weekend. I'm using a tyvek ground sheet, Thermarest xtherm, and a Moutain Hardware bag. I get everything setup and my ground sheet slides one way, sleeping pad another and my bag another. I was all over the place all night long. What's the best way to...

My bivy weighs like 7oz and solves multiple things. Sleep system stays together, bugs kept at bay, wind block, splash guard. My bivy and tarp combined weigh about 20oz, 22oz for my quilt, 16oz for my pad.

Making lines on you pad with seam sealer works very well.
