Ranked #142 - Sleeping Pads
March 9, 2010
I've had my base camp pad for over a decade now, I've gotten a few holes over the years (slept too close to a cactus) but continue to patch them up and use this pad for car based adventures. I've even used it as extra protection in a surfboard bag so that my boards had a fighting chance against the airlines baggage handlers. If you aren't going backpacking, I have to recommend this pad.
