What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I took the Ultra 3R out for a fastpacking trip where weight and space were everything. It packs down impressively small and still gave me solid insulation through a frosty alpine night. It's definitely a go-to for multi-day missions where efficiency matters."When we're chasing big mileage through mountain passes or pedaling deep into the backcountry, sleep systems need to work as hard as we do. The Ultra 3R Sleeping Pad from EXPED is purpose-built for fast-moving adventures, delivering warmth and comfort without weighing us down or hogging pack space. With a compact design and a 2. 9 R-value, the Ultra 3R strikes the perfect balance for three-season objectives. SynMat Technology(TM) insulation-made from recycled microfiber-traps warmth even when the temps dip near freezing. A tough 20D recycled ripstop polyester shell resists abrasion, while the lightweight build makes it easy to bring comfort anywhere we roll out the tent.
