Description

Partners well with most a-frame style tarps, including:
Set-up & use:
The floor clips in to your tarp's corners while the netting is suspended off your face by clipping to points above. You can also use it more traditionally, and just let the netting drape over you. See the Rigging tab for information on installing the rigging.
For simpler set-up when pitched without a tarp, consider using the Stand-alone rigging kit which allows the bivy to be pitch with only 4 stakes and your poles. See the link for more information.
Made in the USA from imported materials.

To get started
You'll want to attach rigging to 6 to 7 locations on the bivy: top corners of the tub (4), apexes (2), middle of ridge (1)(optional).
Included: 18 ft of 1/16" shock cord, 7 mitten hooks, 3 mini barrel cordlocks
If pitching with a YAMA tarp or the stand-alone rigging kit, please see the following chart for suggested cord lengths:
For current bivy version: Coming*
For older chest or ridge zip bivys: Cord length chart
*For connecting the newer bivy to a 1P Cirriform Tarp tentative lengths follow: Front corners: 22", Rear corners: 14", Front apex: 28", Rear apex: 23", Center of ridge: 13" (you may wish to cut these a little longer and trim as needed)
To install the cords:
You don’t need to follow our method, but this is how we like to do it.
At the corners
- Tie a loop on one end of the shock cord. We like to use a simple overhand loop knot.
- Using a clinch knot, tie on a mitten hook to the other end of the cord.
- Attach the cord to the tub with a girth hitch.
At the apexes
- Tie a loop on one end of the shock cord using an overhand loop knot.
- Pass the cord through a cord lock.
- Pass the free end of the cord through the small webbing loop at the apex (direction: middle of bivy outward).
At the front, two webbing loops are provided, one on either side of the zipper. Pass the cord through the loop on the side opposite the side you'd like to bivy to open towards.) - Using a clinch knot, tie on a mitten hook to the free end of the cord.
At the middle of the ridge
(Optional. Connecting the this location to a point above can help to open up the inside of the bivy)
- Tie a loop on one end of the shock cord using an overhand loop knot.
- Pass the cord through a cord lock.
- Pass the free end of the cord through the small webbing loop at the apex.
- Using a clinch knot, tie on a mitten hook to the free end of the cord.
Stand-alone rigging kit:
For pitching the bivy on its own, we also offer a stand-alone rigging kit. This lightweight kit allows you to pitch the bivy with your poles and just four stakes. Please see the rigging kit's page for more information and instructions.
