My new favorite pad
By Ben Cook

I have had a Thermarest for years and have loved it (I still do) but was unhappy with its packability on backpacking trips. The insulated air core is great. I think I will still use my Thermarest for snow caves/winter camping but for backpacking its the Big Agnes all the way.
