Hey all!
I think I know the answer to this, but has anyone found a good way to quiet noise from outside while sleeping?
I spent last summer driving up and down California for mountain bike races and while it worked wonderfully for just me, sleeping proved challenging on a few occasions thanks to noisy campgrounds...in one instance, it was just one lady who had a particularly piercing voice talking with her family. I dealt with it (even if I was not stoked to be up until midnight with a 30-mile race the next day) but I'm hoping to spend this summer on some trips with my family (4 year old, 2 year old, and maybe my wife if I can catch her on a good day and convince her to join). If you have had kids of that age...you know sleep is incredibly important and not all-that easy to come by. I dropped the top one night and slept on the roll-over, but that certainly won't work with 3 (or 4).
I have a 1996 Hawk which I've pretty well outfitted (for me) with 150W of solar, a fridge, Joolca water setup, 270 degree awning, etc. I think it will be a great setup for the family and I plan to invest more into it, but the one thing holding me back is how loud those nights have been.
