Guide Tips for Sleeping Pads\r\n\"The best all around sleeping pad for me is the Therm-a-Rest NeoAir™ XLite™. It offers superb comfort and insulation, and is super packable. It\'s my go-to pad for mountaineering.\" Peter Whittaker\r\n \"For cold places I use both a foam and an inflatable pad. My inflatable is so lightweight and compact these days that if I were only bringing one, I’d choose it over the foam.\" Dave Hahn\r\n\"Inflatables are now much warmer than foam and the sleeping pad is about equal with the bag as far as what keeps you warm when sleeping on snow.\" Seth Waterfall\r\n\"I carry both inflatable as well as foam on early season climbs lasting more than two nights, extremely cold climbs, and when winter camping or in remote places.\" Solveig Waterfall\r\n\"I usually carry both an inflatable and a foam pad when I remember them...which is not often.\" JJ Justman
