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.

Features:

  • Fabric: 150-denier textured polyester
  • Inflated dimensions: 20 x 72 x 2 in. (51 x 183 x 5 cm.)
  • Lifetime manufacturer's warranty
  • R-value (relative warmth): 6.2
  • Rolled dimensions: 21 x 5.4 in. (53 x 14 cm.)
  • Weight: 2 lbs. 12 oz. (1,250 g.)

Nice unit. Manufacturer charges too much.

The base camp is a comfortable pad that works for the car camper to the occasional backpacker. I highly recommend the ThermaRest line in general for comfort and value.

Best of Both Worlds.

We camp at developed campgrounds and in the backcountry woods of New England. We bring our Therm-a-Rest Base Camp Pads to both places, as they are fairly light and compact, but most importantly, comfortable. Sure there are lighter and more compact pads, but we are not hiking the AT, so an extra pound doesn't really matter - and is definitely worth the extra comfort.

Excellent sleeping pads

This is the first self-inflating sleeping pad that I have bought, and I love it. I was surprised how comfotable it is to sleep on. These are great sleeping pads for car camping, which I do more than not. They do not come with a bag or strap or anything, but I just use some webbing sinch-straps and that works fine for me.

I love it.

I'm strictly a car camper, so the size of this Thermarest was not an issue for me. I took it to the Coachella festival and I have to say it was better than some of the hotel beds that I slept in on my trip. The self-inflation thing is mysterious and magical, although it takes some time to happen.

A great choice!

I never used a self-inflating mattress before but boy was I glad I had it two weekends ago. It was 40 degrees and I definitely think this mattress helped keep me warm and comfortable. The self-inflating part is very cool, it just takes a little work to get it deflated again and into the stuff sack. Absolutely worth the effort, though!

I used the sleeping mats in a recent trip to the Bighorn Mountains - we got rain and lots of it, along with snow, sleet and hail. The mats worked above and beyond my expectations, and were the most comfortable of any mats ever tried and they dried out very quickly when they got wet - and they did. I would recommend them to anybody without question or hesitation!

Good nights sleep.

Very comfortable! Minimal work to set it up, I mean come on, it inflates itself! No more noisy air pumps or blowing up a mattress for me.

Very Comfortable

When car camping throughout the year, this is a great sleeping pad. It even works great in a tent on the snow due to the high R value. If weight is not an issue & you want to sleep very comfortably, this pad is for you.
