From a fellow Arkansan, this is something I’ve recently discovered, myself. With our humidity and dew points, the colder it gets outside, the more dew I wake up with in the morning. If I’m only out for a couple of days in good weather (well, it’s arkansas, right?) then I don’t feel it’s a big deal. If it’s going to be very cool each night, with plenty of rain forecasted, and I know that drying out my gear is unlikely, then I’ll probably pitch my tarp to keep the dew on it instead of me.
