<p>The inflatable sleeping pad I bought last year is leaking air and I'm debating the wisdom of taking a replacement to Alaska in September. When working, it's more comfortable than a foam pad. But I worry it will provide no insulation when deflated. I have also never used a camping air mattress below 50 Fahrenheit.</p> <p>Is there a risk of hypothermia from a leaked inflatable pad?</p> <p>When working properly, do inflatable mattresses provide sufficient insulation for cool / cold temperatures?</p>
