On a backpacking trip, the last thing you want to sacrifice is sleeping comfort. To maximize your time spent in the tent, look to the NeoAir Xlite Max from Therm-A-Rest to provide the sleep you need in between high mileage days on the trail. The ThermaCapture technology uses reflective properties to send cold air back down to the ground while the 3. 2 insulation rating means you can use this bag for summer and shoulder season trips. If you decide to leave the tent at home, the ripstop material on the top and bottom of this pad will protect from pesky twigs and rocks that always seem to end up beneath you so you can get a restful night's sleep.
