Cots for overnight

[RJFoy]

Anyone have suggestions on brand/model of cots that they use on the ice for overnight trips?

I've got 2 different ones I use. I have the biggest one made that sportsmans carried and I only use it in my clam xl6000. I have a smaller one that folds down in a tri fold that's not as long and it fits better in my 949i. I do like my bigger one better as it sits higher and can be sat on like a couch and there's room underneath to store stuff. The tri fold one sits closer to the ground and can only be used for sleeping. There's no wrong or right on cots just what fits your situation best. A good sleeping bag and wool blanket is #1. Hope this helps

I got mine from Walmart and it folds in half and fits in my sled for easy to tow with my gear

thanks guys. really just looking for ease of packing on the ice and what fits best in your hubs. I have a xl4000 that i just bought that i plan on using for over night trips.

I bought one that sits higher off the ice as well, it is a space saver since you can slide all your bins and various gear underneath.

I got the walmart one that folds up pretty small but still sits up high enough to use as a a a seat and store gear below. Used at Flaming Gorge few weeks ago and worked out great.

Pardon me for butting in from North of the border.  We really like our Cam-O-Cot bunk beds.  If you get them, be sure to get the extensions to make more room between them.

That looks like a good time for sure!

Thanks for sharing.

Oh, and if you get serious about them, note that there is an L and an XL.  We opted for the L because they are not as wide, and space in the shelter is at a premium.

Sleep area:

L:     79” (201cm) L x 28” (70cm) W
XL:   79” (201cm) L x 35” (88cm) W

Cabela's and Costco tend to carry the XL.

They have used the cam-o-cot and cam-o-bunk names, but the company is Disc-O-Bed.

I'm not connected to them.  I just like the product.

I like those bunks fgsteve, pretty sure no one would want to be sleeping under me if I was on the top one though. LOL

Imagine 2 sets in the big clam 4 guys, for 3 days 4 nights. Eating canned chilli. LOL you would have to be very careful with an open flame. LOL

We used to sleep on a beach/ lounge chair in the ice tent, great if you like your top half elevated a little, good ones can slide the leg rest underneath and double as the fishing chair, saw a nice one at sportsman’s the other day
