My uncle in Flagstaff kept bugging me to swap my foam sleeping pad for an inflatable one, and I finally did it at 41
I fought him on it for 2 years because I was sure a $15 foam pad was all I needed, but after 3 nights of waking up with a sore hip at Lake Mary I caved and got a $70 pad. Best sleep I have had in a tent, no contest. Anyone else wait way too long to ditch the old foam brick?
Man, I did the exact same thing and kicked myself for waiting so long. What finally made you cave, was it just the sore hip or did your uncle throw in some other argument that got to you? Curious if the setup at Lake Mary was rocky ground or if it was the cold that pushed you over the edge.
