Pad Camping

sleeping pad recommendation?
Would like to get a sleeping pad for camping. I heard the Thermarest Trail Lite Large is nice http://www.rei.com/product/734503?preferredSku=7345030014&cm_mmc=cse_froogle-_-datafeed-_-product-_-7345030014&mr:trackingCode=31817AF1-E390-DE11-B4D4-0019B9C043EB&mr:referralID=NA
but I was wondering how this cheaper one from gander mountain would compare

Thanks in advance =)
They are nearly equal, the weight is almost the same and guarantees are the same I would buy the lower priced unit. You can add too these a very low cost closed cell foam mat from walmart for about $14 that will protect the expensive pad from puncture and give you another 1/2 inch of insulation and comfort.

So when at last, late on a hot Sunday afternoon, the train from the north wound slowly into the tiny terminus, it was cheering to find that the town was still unaltered and unspoiled. Nothing was new, except the fussy little Ford ear that was waiting to bump and jolt us over the sandy half-mile to the hotel Our kit deposited, we went out into the market place to renew acquaintance with people and places, accompanied by Si Aly Sab, a Kabyle landowner who was again kindly acting as cara van leader for the trip.
