Etymology

The term 'bedroll' is a compound word formed from 'bed', referring to a place of rest, and 'roll', indicating something that can be rolled up for storage or transport. The word has its origins in the early 20th century, when outdoor activities like camping became more popular. Prior to that, similar terms were used to describe portable sleeping arrangements, but 'bedroll' specifically suggests a combination of practicality and ease of use. As travel and exploration increased, particularly in the American West, the bedroll gained popularity among cowboys and adventurers looking for lightweight and convenient sleeping solutions. Today, bedrolls are common in various forms for outdoor enthusiasts, showing the evolution of camping gear over time.
