Abstract

An accessory for ground pads that includes first and second panels attached to one another so as to form a pocket into which a portion of a ground pad can be inserted. The first portion incorporates an expansion zone of elastic material so that when soft items are place between the ground pad and the expansion zone, an elevated structure akin to a pillow is formed. The second portion includes at least one strap attached thereto so that when the ground pad is rolled for storage, the at least one strap can be used to retain the rolled state of the pad.
