Therm-a-Rest

Therm-a-Rest BaseCamp

Altrec

For those who want to feel pampered by their camping gear, the redesigned Thermarest BaseCamp Regular sleeping pad is the answer. Two inches (a quarter inch thicker than the previous version) of comfy open cell foam provide insulation and comfortable separation from river rocks, cold dirt, or a hard floor. The self-inflating Thermarest BaseCamp Regular sleeping pad is five inches shorter and narrower than the BaseCamp Large sleeping pad, a good option for smaller framed campers, those who rarely toss and turn in their sleep, or those who would like to save a few dollars instead of experiencing the expanded size of the large model. Additionally, some backpacking enthusiasts choose to carry the Thermarest BaseCamp Regular sleeping pad into the backcountry, figuring the extra weight is a worthy trade-off for a good night's sleep.

  • Fabric: 150-denier textured polyester
  • Inflated dimensions: 20 x 72 x 2 in. (51 x 183 x 5 cm.)

Fantastic!

This pad is absolutely fabulous. It's incredibly warm (check the r-value in the specs page), but is actually reasonably light. I have packed it on several short trips easily, and while not a minimalist, I'm small and don't like to carry much. It's easy to strap it to the outside of the pack, and worth it. I sleep like a baby on this thing by puffing it up with a few extra breaths and then, actually, letting a tiny bit out. Just the right amount of give remains. I use it with the Big Agnes Rox Anne, which has a sleeve for an insulated pad. The bag leaves off the bottom insulation in favor of the pad, which makes up for a bit of weight. Together with a Pacific Outdoor Equipment blow-up pillow, it's the best system in the universe.

Don't leave home without it

I love this! It's so soft. The only bad thing is the size. Man this thing rolls up big

Comfy Feet and Head!

Wonderful!! Since I'm medium-tall and on the heavy side, I bought this instead of the Trail Lite Women's to give me enough length and a little extra cushion. There's nothing I hate more than having my feet or head hang off onto the cold, hard ground, or feeling the hard ground under me! The length was ample, and I slept better since I didn't worry about parts of me hanging off the ends.
I and my down bag stayed warm, dry and comfortable all night despite the fact that the tent leaked badly and the only dry spot was on top of my mattress! Related to this, the muddy dog also slept partially on my mattress, and the dirty paw-prints washed right off.
While this mattress is slightly larger and 3/4 pound heavier than the Trail Lite, I felt that the added length and thickness were worth what they added to my load. Honestly, I'd rather go without clean clothes than be uncomfortable at night!

Comfortable and durable

I slept on one of these for two years while in the Peace Corps. It worked out well and was very comfortable belying its thickness. I'd have no hesitation in purchasing one of these again.

This is the best sleeping pad I have ever bought! I love it!! I always get a good night's sleep on it. I couldn't be happier with it.

Great in rock back wrenching conditions, lite and easy to roll. Great night sleep.

Compact and comfortable

I LOVE my thermarest. It is extremely comfortable, it packs easily without adding excessive weight to the pack, and is quick to set up. After using a cheap foam pad for years, I don't think I could ever go back.

better than a pad or an inflateable mattress. rolls smaller than a pad.

Very Easy To Use

Using the sleep pad was super easy. It's very light weight and after a long day of hiking, it definitely beats sleeping on the ground.
