In cooler weather i may put clothes or my pack under my feet. In our quest for lighter pack weight we tend to throw the comfort out. I sometimes think about carrying 2 more pounds, getting a thick pad and being able to carry the extra weight because your well rested. That being said the pad I am using is not bad its just not great.
