I was looking for something light weight for winter climbing. On a scale from 1 to 5, this winter bivy is definetly a 4++. Extremely light weight, easy to enter and exit and it kept my bag absolutely dry after two nights in snow caves. Nice price too. I can't think of anything more I could ask. Highly recommended.
Backcountry gets a 5.0 for service, I had the bag within 3 days of ordering and I live in Asia. Can't go wrong ordering from these guys.
