MSR E-Bivy

5 Star Rating

Good for size/weight

By Ranked #133 - Bivy Sacks March 15, 2011

I replaced an OR Alpine Bivy with this due to its size and weight and I am quite happy with it. Obviously it isn't as impervious as the full on gore-tex bivy but my feeling is the trade off in weight (over a pound) is worth it if you are near or below the tree line. Even above it the adage light is right comes into play.
