Big Agnes Dual Core Sleeping Pad - Mummy

Item #BAG0122 | 0 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Single pad solution

By Ranked #28 - Midweight Sleep Pads January 28, 2009

I led trips in Northern Maine for the past 10 years and was constantly searching for a sleeping pad that could handle the extreme cold, -30F, that we suffered through up there. Before this pad I had to carry a thermarest and a ridgerest- otherwise you could feel the cold seep through. With this pad, I have never felt the cold. It literally adds a few degrees to your bags comfort rating. I don't roll around much, so I can't really comment on how easy it is to stay on... you're pretty high up with the pad fully inflated. Using the pad with a regular sleeping bag worked great- using it with a Big Agnes bag I found the pad so big that there was hardly room left for me... and I'm only 5'8" 160lbs... a friend borrowed my gear and literally couldn't zip the bag shut. If your a small individual, Big Agnes also stands for BA gear... it performs well and is super durable. Considering that I could only carry one pad, this system saved weight. For summer or fall travel, it's overkill and heavy.
