I know I did a dumb. Was hiking in Utah and it was 95 during the day. I left my pad inflated in my tent all day and it cooked in the heat. No rain fly- direct sun exposure. It's so crinkly and crispy! The pad was loud before, now it's like cellophane.

I'm not complaining- this was clearly operator error. But I'm curious to know what happened and why.

Slept on it again the next night and it was fine, just very crinkly.
