Sleeping pads

[_Nick_]

Wait for the new version of the xtherm supposedly coming out this year. Was at the last backpacking expo. Lighter than the current version, warmer, and QUIETER (the most important thing). I'll probably have to upgrade my current xtherm when it comes out.

Gotta correct this. Turns out I was confusing the Xtherm for the new Xped. The Xtherm is getting a better covering to make it more quiet. But the Xped winterlite down is the lighter/warmer pad that I was thinking of. It's a bit heavier than the Xtherm, but the R value is a substantial bump.

Sorry for the confusion.

Yes. R8 with only 18 oz seems impressive. Will wait for field reviews.

If I could find where to buy the new XPED mat, I would buy it right now. Needing a new pad for colder conditions, and with winter here, I would love to test it out.

Let me know if anyone see it for sale.

Exped website says March 2015 for the new pads.
