Why We Like The Alpine Bivy

When planning to sleep in harsh conditions without lugging around a tent, the Rab Alpine Bivy is our top pick. It's incredibly lightweight at just a pound and conveniently packs down to the size of a water bottle. With its full-zip closure, it provides complete protection against the elements found in alpine environments. The eVent waterproof and breathable membrane, along with the 3-layer DVStorm fabric, ensures that no water gets in and prevents condensation from accumulating inside. Even when sleeping on rough terrain, the durable nylon floor holds up exceptionally well.
