Adventurers have taken some pretty objectionable partners to bed\u2014like their smelly socks. They do this because even clothing designed to shed moisture\u2014like synthetic base layers or wool socks\u2014can become damp from rain, snow or sweat. If you\u2019re warm, continue wearing damp items until they dry naturally, but if you’re at risk of getting cold\u2014such as sitting around camp\u2014wearing damp clothing is no fun. Change into dry clothes and bring any damp items into your sleeping bag overnight\u2014your body heat will dry them out. For best results, tuck them in the warmest areas\u2014such as between your legs, in your armpits, or around your chest. Lightly damp items should be dry by morning, but very damp items may require two or more nights to dry out. The smell, unfortunately, will remain.<\/p>\n
