Getting soaked is the absolute worst. How much condensation do you get and what do you do about it?

Nothing more miserable than waking up soaking wet. Learning to sleep under trees, not out in the open, was key to me staying (mostly) dry. Skurka’s page on site selection really helped drill into my head how important it is.
