Quilt pad

[ChrisA]

I've sifted through the archives and still am a bit unclear on what I need. I'd like something packable and suited for warm to cold weather.

I'm 5'10", 205 and thick in the upper body. I'm running a quilt. I'll be at base camp in a cot but will also spike out for a night or two or three.

I tend to shift from back to side to side a lot so maybe I should go bigger than regular size?

Let me know what works or if any additional information is need.

Thanks,

Chris

I use sierra designs backcountry quilt with a non-insulated neoair pad, works well down to freezing temps. With a pack under your legs you can get away with a shorter length pad, or regular length, I doubt you'd need an xl pad. I'd consider the shape also, a square pad allows more sprawling when you sleep on your side vs a mummy shaped one, that's totally dependant on you though

Exped ul7 reg wide trade off for warmth and comfort is weight but so worth the good night sleep

Sea To Summit Comfort Plus. First year I've slept like a baby and wake up refreshed and not hurting.

I second that. Slept on one 24 days this summer after an Exped poo'd out on me.
