Outdoor Research Alpine Bivy - Steel Blue

The fully featured Outdoor Research Alpine Bivy provides backpackers with a snug, secure sleeping space and provides weather protection beneath a canopy of innovative, breathable Gore-Tex Respiration Positive 3L fabric. Measuring 82' long by 26' wide at the head (tapering to 19 ' at the feet), the bivy is large enough to accommodate most sleeping bags and accompanying standard sleeping pads. An integrated Delrin pole runs over the top of the bag, keeping material off of your face and providing nearly 20' of headroom while you are lying flat on your back. When not needed, the Delrin pole can be left at home, shaving nearly 2 ounces off of the 20.6 ounce packed weight of the bivy. Extra volume is built into the foot section to provide a little wiggle room and increase livability. The GORE-TEX fabrication delivers durable, waterproof, windproof protection while allowing air to circulate, ensuring that you can breathe easily and avoid condensation build-up. No-see-um netting at the opening of the bivy allows you to view the stars on clear nights and allow completely unimpeded airflow. The ripstop nylon floor has a TPU lamination for full waterproof protection. Fully taped seams provide further assurance that you are protected from the elements. A stuff sack is included with each Outdoor Research Alpine Bivy.
