This ultra-compact and lightweight bivy offers versatile protection in any season. Like our E-Wing, it's factory compressed to the size of a soda can so you can easily carry it along as an emergency shelter—even on day trips. It’s also provides complementary, ultralight protection for your sleeping bag under a tarp, or a boost in warmth when pushing your bag’s temperature rating between seasons. A durable, coated floor and silnylon top fend off dew, frost, light precipitation and, once deployed, the stuff sack expands for easy packing.
