Thinking abt this bc the price is right and I've been really happy with my Alpine bivy and a rain jacket from OR. Both pieces are impressive, the Alpine is bomb proof, I've dropped it off the back of a 'speeding' motorcycle, laid it out everywhere from parking lots to dense dense woods, waited out monster storms (it might float), woken up in 2ft of snow, resisted an angry llama, jerkface coyotes and a puffing cow. It's ideal for traveling but sucks to be stuck in for days. Its spoiled me though, I thought I was going to be able to find a tent just as tough and I don't think one exists. A bivy with all the bells and whistles didn't make sense to me until I got one now I can't see grabbing this one instead unless Im overloaded and positive it's not going to rain. (I don't think I'm ever positive it's not going to rain.). Might be good for drier climates or ppl who aren't sure if they'll like a bivy, they have their drawbacks. ETA nm, I see it's waerproof!
