    Overcover question

    I'm sure this has been covered before but can't find the answer so hoping for feedback.

    I get the whole over cover when cold out, but does it help on those really wet dewy mornings in spring? If I zip it up before bed will it keep most of the moisture out?

    Thanks

    Nathan

    It helps alot from the outside. The worry is the condisation from the inside

    I will say yes but I never complete close the top cover. (((EVER)))
    At a minimum you would want a 6" opening at the head end.

    I have a Hennessy Over Cover, it comes with a nice circle cut on one end designed to let fresh air in and humidity out. I find for me it works great. I just hate waking up all sweaty and sticky, gotta have fresh air in, just not too much. LOL
