Dank you! Seriously... A paraffin/mineral oil waxed sheet is my current experimentation. When a person gets out of Bivvy to pee, indie rain gears... Wets inside of bed! A Person must have "something", 3 x 3, Tarp, or something. That Tyvek stuff is like, more research required. What if a person was "wearing" one of those Tyvek Haz-Mat Suits? All kind of puffy layering... Sherpa?

Do you ever have issues getting in and out during heavy rain while keeping your sleeping pad and bag/quilt dry?
@CaptainCampАй бұрын
Yes, light rain is okay but heavy rain and wind will usually mean a bad night. A poncho-tarp above the hole, gives less protection than a tent. The hole can be closed but results in more condensation

Hey great video! I am wondering, there is a tarp called Rab Siltarp 2 which is big enough for two people and they managed to cut the weight to weigh 400g. Other than the added weight of the tent pegs and the time to set it up, I am trying to figure out if there is a good reason for me to pick a 400g Snugpak bivvy instead? Edit: I also got some more questions if OK with you. Do you put the airpad inside the bivvy or underneath it? Do you reckon it could work well to use two systems: bivvy in combination with a tarp to trap heat in the mountains or is that overkill? Also, do you put a groundsheet like tyvek or closed cell foam under it to protect the air mattress and bivvy?
@kct99673 ай бұрын
Way back in the 70s, they didn't have these fancy bivvies, all we had was no more than sleeping bag linners , and tarps, so when power hiking (like doing a 3 day hike in 1) we'd carry no more than a tarp an a linner, if it was dry we'd sleep on top of the tarp, if it rained under, life was so much simpler then!

I've always been interested in a Bivvy bag. I only camp in the local Woods about ten mins from my place, so weight isn't an issue. It just seems like a cool experience. 😂 I got a weird korean made tent from ebay years ago, and it's been through rain, cold, hot allsorts, and only the zip on the outer bag went last year. Haa!

great video man, how did you find alcohol fuel for your stove, was it easy to find along the trail? Also what was the longest food and water carry you had to do on trail?
@CaptainCamp5 ай бұрын
Hi! I started with my 250 ml alcohol bottle filled and only had to buy refill one time, if I remember correctly. But I did not cook all the time (cold soaking + snacks). "Alcool à brûler" can be found in most larger shops, especially the French ones as it's a common fuel. I bought a 1 liter bottle in Gavarnie and refilled my small bottle. I left the 1 liter bottle in a small hut named Cabane des Aires, right before the challenging climb of Pic de la Géla (part of the Whiteburn route, not the Tom Martens route). You might also find remains in small huts 😎👍 My longest food carry was from Gavarnie to Besurta/Bernasque (part 3 of my videos). It was 100 km (5 days) without resupply, over the hardest and highest terrain of the HRP. Again, this was the Whiteburn route, I think the Tom Martens route enables resupply in Parzan and maybe other places on that section. Hike your own hike 😎👍 Water carry: Once you're really in the mountains, let's say from about Lescun until Pic du Canigou, usually there is plenty of water to be found. Filtering water using a Befree or Sawyer filter is a good idea because of cattle. I lost my filter halfway but survived. My water shortage problems occurred in the first week (especially day 2) and the last week. In those parts I recommend having a water carrying capacity of 3 liters and refill it completely when possible. From Lescun until Pic du Canigou I only used one 1,5 liter bottle 😎👍 Thanks for watching and good luck on your future adventures! 😎👍

Sorry to say this but my 4.05 ounce Dyneema floorless tent is 4 ft X 8.5 ft X 3.5 ft high, sits in the palm of my hand or pocket, all glue construction, waterproof zippered entry/exit, waterproof zippered vent with mosquito netting and hood. It has a 300 test pound loop at the peak for hanging it by 8 or more methods plus using a tree limb or other pole like support. Your body will suffer from lack of sleep during wind, cold wind, rain, snow and sleet falling and sweeping across the bivy bag lacking clearance within for your body with the bag lying upon you.

Sorry that I didn’t state that my 4.05 ounce tent is a DIY. Dyneema is extremely expensive, but I found a way to make tents at reasonable cost owing to the trigonometry method I employ.

Hi, curious about your plans, first two weeks in June may be far too early for Triglav. You can expect lots of snow at higher elevations, and closed huts. Also be careful if you plan to camp wild, this is strictly forbidden. Good luck in any case.

Great stuff. I have a small bivybag, more as a ekstra layer outside the sleeeping bag. It is great for good weather conditions as a backup if the rain is surprisingly coming. Bring av poncho or tarp your head will be dry. It is never wrong to bring a poncho according to temperature anyhow. But if the weather is fine this sleeping system gives a great feeling of freedom. The bivybag protects the sleeping bag from gretting holes and dirt. Protect my face by having a bugnet over my head.

Check out cowboy camping with a wool blanket as well, you can't get the benefit of a fire with a bivi because sparks may melt it, but wool is flame retardant.
