This why it is called the land of shifting stones, I finally consciously recognize.  

It also says on the third day that sleeping place is then gone forever and the unsuccessful hunter doomed.

At least in the story, the sleeping place is essential to their long survival and can shun them or occasionally do something with their sacrifices to make it "gone" in the morning.
