What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"I took the Ultra 8R on a snow-camping trip where temps dipped below zero, and it performed flawlessly. It’s incredibly warm, and I didn’t feel the cold ground once. For deep winter or high alpine trips, this is my new go-to pad."When we’re venturing into frozen terrain or camping in deep winter, the Ultra 8R sleeping pad from EXPED gives us the confidence to sleep soundly through the coldest nights. With an unmatched R-value for its weight class, the Ultra 8R delivers serious warmth in a packable design that’s built for alpine missions and winter expeditions.Thanks to SynMat Plus Technology™, the Ultra 8R pairs recycled microfiber insulation with a layer of heat-reflective foil, achieving an ASTM R-value of 7.9 and a tested temperature rating of -22°F. That means reliable protection from frozen ground, even in harsh backcountry conditions. A 3.5-inch thickness offers plush cushioning, while the recycled 20D ripstop polyester shell is bluesign® approved for sustainability. Whether we're on skis, snowshoes, or boots, this pad turns frigid camps into warm rest stops.
