Bivy Sack in the Winter Snow

Now the winter snows haven't come yet, but when they do I'll be out and about wandering in the valley and in the woods.


It occurred to me that I'd like to spend an evening down there wrapped up warmly and laying inside a bivy sack from Mountain Equipment Co-op.

"A bivy bag, bivouac, bivi, or bivy sack is a lightweight alternative to traditional tent systems. It is essentially a waterproof fabric shell designed to fit over your sleeping bag. It acts as a barrier against the wind and rain and provides extra insulation. Good bivy bags consist of Gore-Tex and are breathable, allowing humidity to pass and so reducing moisture inside for the occupant."

Hope you are having a nice day,

Mungo
