Ranked #721 - Sleeping Pads
September 21, 2005
We camp at developed campgrounds and in the backcountry woods of New England. We bring our Therm-a-Rest Base Camp Pads to both places, as they are fairly light and compact, but most importantly, comfortable. Sure there are lighter and more compact pads, but we are not hiking the AT, so an extra pound doesn't really matter - and is definitely worth the extra comfort.
