Big Agnes
Insulated Q Core SLX Sleeping Pad
$149.95

Sleeping on Big Agnes' Insulated Q Core SLX Sleeping Pad is truly like sleeping on a cloud. I own the long and wide version of this sleeping pad, which helps keep my six-foot, 190-pound frame comfortable for the entire night. 

It will take a couple of minutes to blow up the Q Core SLX, but once you have, you'll be thrilled to head to sleep. When looking for a sleeping pad, don't look at the price tag. The only important thing is whether you'll be able to sleep through the night. If that means you have to spend some money, it's worth it. 

The most dangerous thing about being in the backcountry is being sleep deprived and having that impact on your future judgments. With this sleeping pad, you'll be well-rested and ready for tomorrow's adventure.
