    First impressions: Thermarest Neoair Xlite

    Rei had a blow out on the fitted sheets for the Neo. This cut down on the noise considerably plus in the summer you don't stick to the pad if you are just laying on it.

    There is a huge trail head parking lot just south of there. No issues with vandals as this is well off the beaten path.
  15. NeoAir (or other inflatable) with or without underpad
