Being all for warmth and comfort when sleeping on snow I've been moaning about Thermarest not making a short wide RidgeRest.
I was web surfing last week and found the new wide folding mat from Exped
https://www.bogong.com.au/exped-flexmat-lw.html
I'll be cutting it in half to use as a warmth booster under my bum and hip and using it in combination with my Comfort plus and a CCF.
The main and perhaps only reason for doing so is reducing the bulk of my sleeping system, I may be willing to share the excess with another snow camper who needs a wide pad.
The Exped are the same width as the British army CCF pads, just a tad wider then the RidgeRest XL

Great to put under the Exped downmat 9LW. Damn the weight, you need a good nights sleep in the cold, never leave home without it.

I'm also looking at getting a new pad/mat to replace my old Xlite. I'm thinking again getting the new one but not sure if I should get the wide and long instead of just the long one? Any one made the move?
