Therm-a-Rest DreamTime Video

Getting a good night’s sleep in the backcountry can make the difference between completing your trip and going home early. To ensure that you get good night’s sleep, it is imperative that you select the right Therm-a-Rest for your needs. When selecting a Therm-a-Rest you have choice from the smallest and lightest pads on the market to the thickest and most comfortable. Where do you fall? Well, the first question that I would ask yourself is; What’s most important to you, weight or comfort? If comfort is your first priority, then the Camp & Comfort series is where you want to start your search. The Dreamtime is a 3 inch thick, fleece covered pad. Basically it is three pads in one. If you unzop the top cover, which is machine washable, there is a layer of pillow topper foam as well as a 2 inch thick self inflating mattress. Going on a trip where you don’t want this much comfort or bulk? You can easily pull the 2 inch thick mattress out and use it as a standalone.
