 You should totally plan on cowboy
 camping when feasible:
 
 Great views of stars/sunrise/sunset from the comfort of your
 bag
 Easy to make breakfast while still in bed
 3 minutes to set up/take down campsite
 Much smaller flat area needed to camp
 
 Get a lightweight bivy sack and you will be protected from
 dew/mist, dirt
 and wind.  It will weigh an extra 7-10 oz, but will
 make your bag 5 degrees
 warmer, so you can get some of that weight back by taking a
 lighter bag.
 Leave your bag, pillow, ultralight teddy bear and sleeping
 pad (if
 inflatable) inside the bivy and just stuff them all together
 into your
 pack.  Instant camp.
