Bivvy Bag Recommendations

[CamperPete]

Anyone recommend a Bivvy Bag as there seems to be so much choice (and price variance) on the web?

Probably be used most in the Lake District.

Cheers

Pete.

I was in the lakes last weekend with my Gortex army issue and it was perfect as usual

Can pick one up of fleabay for around 30-50 squid. You can go for the hooped type and full zip up ones but they are getting a bit too tent like so may aswell buy a tent lol.

I have a terra nova jupiter bivy bag it has a small hoop so its not on your face also has a mozzie net you you can still gaze out. I have used mine in wales and on hevelyn in the lakes. OUTSTANDING!!!

Bright red only thing if that worries ya....

Dutch issue, full length zip is well handy.

Can reccomend the british issue one, but if I get a second for when the kids are with me I will go for the dutch version because of the zip! Didnt realise it was a full length zip though?
