sleeping pad
Ground insulation layer
A sleeping pad is a lightweight cushion used for insulation and comfort when sleeping outdoors.
Backpackers and campers place it between their sleeping bag and the ground to retain body heat and soften hard surfaces.
Types include foam pads, self-inflating pads, and air mattresses: I forgot my sleeping pad and froze all night.
