Wind Bivy

Haven't had chance to use it yet, but pack size is great and looking forward to getting it out in the great outdoors

I picked up a used dcf cirriform and a new from Yama wind bivy. I set it up twice at home, and got the shock cord all dialed in. I was able to get out for two nights this past week and I am extremely impressed with the set up. versatile pitch, exceptional quality. I love the material used for the wind bivy. It seems like a great fit for my use witch is 3 season mountain and desert hiking. No bugs, no sand on my bag, and a great night sleep under the stars. Thank you for making great gear. Cheers!

I've slept in it once. I found i can't really breathe well in it...I had to have it unzipped somewhat to really breathe without it feeling laborious. Which is a problem...It was only about 65f or maybe colder so I'm not sure how useful this will be in a North Carolina summer for me. The quality is superb but i think i would like a panel of regular no seeum net up at the top where the zippers all meet. I am thinking i will figure out a way to use a headnet to cover the top where the y zipper comes together, so i can leave it open a bit. Maybe that will work..... I really like the concept and think it may be a very breathable but water resistent alternative to another denser fabric like argon or m20 So that should be great so as to mitigate condensation...but i think it would work better with the top 6 inches or so made of regular bugnet. Of course there is the possiblity i am allergic or sensitive or something, to the dwr on the monofilament material. I haven't really figured it out yet. But i will! It is a beautifully made piece of equipment:)
