Big Agnes Sleeping Giants Memory Foam Kit
worth every penny

I just spent 8 nights sleeping on a thermarest trail stuck into the Sleeping Giants Memory foam kit. It was worth every penny. It's not as good as my bed at home, but better than some beds I've slept on.
When I was a kid I would sleep on the ground. As I got older I went to a thin closed cell foam pad. As I got older still I went to a thermarest. Now I stepped it up another notch by putting a nice layer of memory foam on the thermarest. Ahhh, how much more enjoyable the outdoors is with a good night's sleep.
Now my only problem is deciding if it is too bulky/heavy to take on a backpacking trip.
