• Probably closer to 240g without the stuff sack - PHD summer lightening thing from last year. Using it as a liner mostly with a 450g sleeping bag.

    If you're still looking at sleeping mats, might be worth looking at the new Exped Hyperlite. I just picked up one of the Winterlite mats (synthetic insulation inside), it's relatively compact given the rating (-17c)... Imagine the Hyperlite would pack a bit smaller

    Easier to inflate with one of the schnozzle things, bit of a PITA to blow it up. One of those silly 3/4 klymit things pictured for scale too...

  • Can I just drink the beer and forget about this sleeping bullshit?

    I'll have a look at these pads but it's another thing to carry and setup. I reckon next test will be sleeping bag and cover or bivvy and maybe jacket in a better location, that's not sub-zero.

  • Sounds like a good plan. I really got this for using in the tent and if I'd made it up to the cairngorms as the forecast was super shitty. Won't bother taking it if the weather improves at some point...
