I suppose it depends on where you sleep, the weather you're expecting and how comfortable you like to be. I carry a Klymit Inertia X-Frame, which packs down to the size of a can of coke and weighs very little. Provides good comfort and prevents the transfer of cold from the ground to your bones. There are certainly more comfortable and better thermal rated mats out there though.

Sleeping mats, does everyone use them?
Normally I take only a sleeping bag, no tent or mat. I sleep in the dirt like a wild dog.
Is it just more weight to carry or is it an essential for you lot?
