[at-l] big agnes insulated air core pads

[Renee (Frolicking Dino)]

I have a BA Insulated AirCore - rectangular - 20" x 72 " x 2.5".  I love 
this mat.  It is the only thing I have found that will let me sleep 
despite having a ton on metal in my leg and hip and needing extra 
padding due to injuries.  I actually got my 3/4" offset under this mat 
once and did not realize it -- it really is that comfortable.  I have 
the rectangular model due to needing to re-position my leg frequently - 
the extra insulated space is mandatory for me.

Blowing this item up every night is a pain, but it is well worth it to 
be able to get some rest.  I know some have had problems with leaks or 
holes, but I never have.

I have used a RidgeRest and a Prolite 3 prior to switching to this pad - 
neither even began to be as comfortable as this pad, though both 
provided adequate warmth.
