That $40 sleeping pad I swore by for 5 years was actually the wrong choice
I used to think inflatable pads were the only way to go for backpacking. Last summer on the Appalachian Trail near Roanoke, I woke up every single night cold and sore. A thru-hiker finally asked why I wasn't using a closed-cell foam pad under my inflatable one. She showed me her setup and I tried it the next night, slept way warmer and more comfortable. Has anyone else found that combo works better than just a thick air pad alone?

Love that combo! Game changer for me once I finally tried it.

Game changer though? Seems a little dramatic.
