Bivi!

[TGEvans]

Looks like im ordering a tarp this weekend. Bivi too if I make my mind up
.Just been to my local cotwolds and they have a rab storm bivi for £60.
Seems ok for what I will want it for. Anyone out there use one? Any
others that may be worth checking out?

yes there is others and one of the cheapest and best is probably the british issue gortex bivi and its alot cheeper than sixty quid

I have used a British Army Gortex Bivi, modified with a lenghtwise zip, for 20 years all over the world and it's still excellent. I have the RAB bivi which is lighter, but I don't think it is as tough. If your not an ultralightweight camper, you won't regret buying the Army one.

I have a Rab survival zone bivi and it has served me well for years. I paid about £40 though now they are about £50. It is much lighter than an issue bivi and perfect (IMO) under a tarp.

Second the Rab SZ bivi. Perfect for under tarp or in a single skin tent for extra protection.

What tarp did you order in the end?
