Lightweight, comfy, what more can you want?

By alpinejames Ranked #1190 - Lightweight Sleep Pads May 5, 2006

I bought this pad to be the 'frame' for a frameless pack. It works great! It weighs much less than a full length ridge/Z-rest and is also more comfortable. The orange soft foam around the torso area makes a huge comfort difference, and it is very warm and insulates well. The one thought for the potential buyer is that the bottom foam, though warm, is not super durable. I prefer to use a ground tarp/Tyvek under it, and when it's not in my pack being protected (i.e. when I need to strap it to the outside) I put it in a stuff sack. But overall, this is the best foam ground pad I've used (out of four others).
