along with the other suggestions you've had, you might also want to consider a Thermarest. They pack up very small, and are much lighter and more comfortable than a picnic blanket. Mine weighs a few ounces and packs into a stuff bag about 12" long by 12" circumference (i.e. not much bigger than a wine bottle). In use it is about 4' long by 18" wide and 1.5" deep. It's the smallest and lightest that was available when I bought it for travelling. You can get bigger ones with more padding. They're quick and easy for me to inflate - you will need to check this for yourself of course. Available from camping shops. http://www.thermarest.com/ -- Bob ========= Thanks. Yes, I noticed when I went to REI that Thermarest also has pads that aren't inflatable. Previously I thought they were all inflatables. I eyed them and I am thinking about them.
