Written byAdventor

What kind of sleeping pad is suitable? First of all, warmth, weight, comfort, durability and size must be considered in order. But for a mountaineer, a good night’s sleep may be a very important thing. If you are usually accustomed to sleeping naked on a super-large water bed, it is best to choose a luxurious two-inch thick, full-length open room foam sleeping mat, without worrying about the weight. If you are someone who can sleep on a harder bed, then a three-quarter-length closed room foam sleeping pad is sufficient. A lightweight, three-quarter length expandable foam sleeping pad. In winter, the author will bring a full-length closed room foam sleeping pad and a complete repair tool to prevent the open room foam sleeping pad from hooking

 

 

Closed room sleeping mat is resistant to injury. If you accidentally step on it with your crampons, it will not be unusable. If something hot is dropped on your closed room sleeping mat, it will only be melted away, and the other parts will remain intact. But on the other hand, it is not very soft, so for some people who are accustomed to sleeping on a soft mattress, it is difficult to adapt to a closed room sleeping pad, even if it is very light and large.

Many inflatable sleeping pads(/product/self-inflating-mats/) can provide a very comfortable feeling on the back. Because you can adjust the pressure of the sleeping pad to meet your needs. Although many people who travel in the wild for a long time mostly choose this kind of sleeping pad, this kind of sleeping pad is easily damaged. For example, confiscated Swiss knives, hot pots, and unplaced ice axes will pierce the sleeping mat and cause air leakage. But most of the inflatable sleeping pads will come with repair tools. The weight of these sleeping pads depends on the type, but after compression and packaging, it is only about half of the closed room sleeping pad. The open-chamber foam sleeping pad without a nylon jacket is best not to buy for climbers because it is large and absorbs water.

The definition of warmth is: the closed room foam sleeping pad has an R value (resistance value of heat transfer) of 2 per half inch (winter load standard), and the weight is about one pound. The open-chamber foam sleeping pad with a Nylon cover has an R value of 4 and a weight of two and one-quarter pounds for every one-half inch. As for the price, the closed room foam sleeping pad is about one-third to one-fourth of the open room foam sleeping pad.
