Modern backpackers picking a good tent spot: This will depend on whether you’re sleeping outside in summer or winter, and on the type of terrain you are in. But generally, you want to be around 60 – 70 metres away from water and well off the
trail. If you can avoid the bottom of canyons, you will avoid both the coldest and most humid spots. Flat ground free of big rocks is also always a win!
Sleeping dry is essential for humans, we have no adaptations for sleeping in water.
Our little mermaid Markus Victoria is becoming more & more ludicrous, confusing sapiens & erectus.
Human ancestors slept safe & dry in shelters 50m from open water, just like we do today, but we have freshwater piped right into our shelters, unlike manatees, penguins, etc.
