This is my fly and biv bag set up.
Siltarp fly only weighs a few ounces and a Outdoor Research bivy bag. A great set up and all up about 1kg.
You need the fly with a bivy bag to have room to move about and cook. I've used it Tahr hunting in all sorts of WX no trouble. Simple to pull down and put up.

Siltarp 1 or 2 ?
good advise you are right on the 1 man tent. but there certainly not cheap here in nz. for a decent 1 that is!!. and from the sounds of where THE CLAW will be going. I would search far and wide for the best possible rated sleep system, what ever it may be ?? TENT or BIVVI bag. because when mother nature turns. it can be brutal.
