Thread: light weight bivi gear

For overnighters in the bush I use A borah gear m90 bivy and a 9'x6' sil tarp, setup with 4 stakes and lines is 550 grams, throw in 600grams for my quilt and 290 for the 3/4 mat and were at about 1.5kg all in
that tarp is tiny though and only really enough to keep you dry overnight, not something you'd want to spend any time under though so if I'm based out for a few days I take my big tarp which is a palace and about 600 grams and a inflatable pad as I get a better sleep on them.

I have just picked up a 1 man mid from 6 moon designs for tops missions, haven't tested it yet but I think it should work pretty well. About 500 grams with lines and stakes then add the bivy, quilt and pad for around 1.7kg all in.
