Can we talk about sleeping pads: inflatable or closed-cell foam for a 3 night trip?
So I had to pick between my old Therm-a-Rest inflatable and a cheap foam pad for a trip to Lake George back in June. I went with the inflatable because it packs down to the size of a water bottle and I had to hike in about 2 miles. First night was fine, but by night two I could feel every root and rock through it. My buddy had the foam pad and slept like a baby but his pack looked like it had a yoga mat strapped to the outside. Now I'm second guessing. Do you all go inflatable for the pack size or foam for the reliability? I keep worrying about a puncture at 2am and no patch kit. What's your go-to and why?
