Better than a bivy

5 nights without rain in Nankoweap, Grand Canyon this tent was perfect, not yet sure how I will enjoy with rain, but I will bet it's better than a bivy.
Set up was easy, used a different stuff sack to save weight but still brought the small pump, (barely over 2 pounds this way), could have done without it. The pump allows you to increase the air pressure in the bladder, but in calm weather is not needed. Works best when staked out at foot and head, but one night on a rock slab used a rock on the head point and my hiking pole through the feet loops with a rock on top and it held just fine, faster set-up and take-down. Plenty of room inside, able to watch the stars through the screen.
Only a half pound more than my bivy, and packs nearly as small, tough call what to take on the next trip.
