Bivy on Whitney near Trail camp

Ranked #215 - Bivy Sacks
June 28, 2010
I took the BD winter bivy out for a test run with my Marmot 40degF on Whitney last weekend and with my Mountain Hardwear 0degF near New Army Pass two weekends before; both times I used a Therm-a-rest NeoAir. While the bivy is nice and lightweight, it doesn't breathe perfectly and is a little tight with the air mattress and 0degF bag; otherwise it is perfect.
