I used this when going to the field when they would let us use more than our poncho liner and fart sacks.. absolutely love it for cool or hot weather camping when not aetting up twitch with air matteress.. when I camp with my family we go luxury.. when I go... a wool blanket. Sleep system and a bivy tent.. easy. Effective. Light weight. Water resistant and with proper venting can even keep you cool and away from bugs

Great review thank you! We all fancy tiny stuff but it has multiple disadvantages! One thing about the annoying double zips, I suppose the outer fly could be left unzipped but secured by Velcro only? 🤔

We got it back in yes, without too much trouble. We found putting the pole end in first worked best, followed by the more bulky side, then tightened the bulk strap first to compress. It helped us to zip things up more easily. We're still liking the shelter :)

I have the geertop, and only is the best for "low profile" nights. Sometimes, I must sleep at some places where is not allowed camping or is not the safer place... Geertop bivy behind some bushes is practically undetectable. I can sleep peacefully and continue my journey. but it is true that inside this tent I can't change clothes, cook, or sit; is only for sleep.

Magical video! I love your spirit! Cheers, Del, Andy and doggies! Andy is the unsung hero of this ultra. . . Looks like bobcat or lynx tracks. It's hard to tell without knowing the size of them. Don't worry, bobcats and lynx are not interested in 2-leggeds and they, and cougars, are very nocturnal, and very aware of their surroundings (and intruders into their territory) so very little chance of spotting them during the day. Cougars have been known to attack lone female runners/cross-country skiers with pom-poms on their tuques (no joke), but that is extremely rare But if you do, happen to site a bobcat or lynx, you're lucky! They are magical... The other tracks are mule deer tracks.. If you blow into your water hose after you drink from it, it will keep it from freezing up. You can also use an insulated cover for the hose, which helps. You could have just warmed the hose up in the aid station vehicle (thanks, to Andy!), or put the hose under your armpit or under your clothes, and it would have thawed, and you could then have just kept using it (blowing the hose out after each drink). Just something to know for cases where you are not aided. ..You were wearing great colours, to make yourself visible on the highway. Great job! I'm so proud of you, Andy and doggies! Cheers!

Thank you so much for your lovely comment - and for identifying those tracks for me! I could tell they were some sort of cat rather than canine tracks as I couldn't see claw marks. It was so quiet out there that day though, and I was quite jumpy! Glad I didn't wear the pompom hat though :) And I shall certainly try that tick with the bladder hose in the winter - I've always struggled with my drinks freezing when it does get chilly. Thanks again!

So if your groundcloth extends beyond the bottom of your tent or bivvy, then any rain will run right under you. Make your groundcloth just slightly smaller in footprint than your cover, so the rain can run off of it. Hope your event went well! Also, your mat can go under the bivvy instead of inside it. It's held in place by the guy lines staking out the bivvy.

Your channel should be optimized, and your videos are very good but your video optimization is very bad Example: The SEO score is very low; there is no perfect title or description; no SEO-friendly tags added; no social media sharing platform; and There are some problems with the settings on your KZbin channel. Because of this, your video is not reaching the people who are interested and you are not getting enough views, likes, and subscriptions There are many problems for which your video views and subscribers are not good. As a result, your video views are not affected. You need SEO for your KZbin channel immediately. As a video SEO expert, I look forward to your response. I can help you grow your KZbin channel. I hope you understand. Have a nice day. Regards Repon Howlader.

I have a similar stove that I use in the US. I really enjoy it instead of a campfire. It directs the smoke up and away, it’s always ready for a kettle, pot, or pan, and it uses the wood way more efficiently. I sewed a chimney flap in my pop up canopy, add a couple sides to get out of chilly winds, and have a general area of warmth. Bonus - in a wooded area, I can usually round up some fallen dried sticks in a few minutes to cook a hot meal. Dry wood makes all the difference.

@DelsJogswithDogs

Hello there, apologies for the delay replying! So I personally think the Geertop one person bivy tent would be the better option as it's definitely taller, and also gives more width for maneuvering. It's about the same weight, still low profile, and according to Amazon, it's available in army green or camouflage. Hope this helps!

Thank you! In terms of changing inside with a pack, it really depends on your size. I thought it was relatively spacious and could just about change etc, but It might be a bit of a squeeze for somebody bigger. I'm around 5ft 6 and 135 to 140 lbs if that helps, and if I recall, I didn't have a large pack in there with me.
