all around great pad

By jokersoul Ranked #519 - Midweight Sleep Pads March 18, 2004

This pad is my new all around pad for fall through spring. i have used it on 2 trips and the comfort is great. the temperature i have taken down to was right at 30F and had no problems and would feel comfortable taking it down lower probably 15F, before i would use a 3/4 length closed cell pad on top. this pad works well with big agnes bags that use a mummy shaped sleeping pad sleeve or the western mountaineering pod sleeping bags but works great with regular sleeping bags as well. because of the mummy shape a little extra attention to your position on the mat is required to keep your feet from rolling off if your in a regular bag without the sleeve to hold it in place, but after a few minutes i had n problems. very lightweight for the comfort and temps that it can be used in. it recently won an editors choice award in backpacker magazine for 2004. i highly recommend this pad
