Snugpak Stratosphere Olive Bivvy Bag New 2011 version with ultralight alloy pegs packs away to an even smaller compact size.
The Snugpak Stratosphere Bivi bag is much smaller that a standard tent but has all the features. Complete with two Aluminium Poles to create hoops and seven L-shaped steel anchor pegs (six and one spare) and packs into its own compression sack.
This ultra compact one person shelter is breathable and fully waterproof with all seams taped. Fully zipped with roll away mosquito net in front of hood and meshed ventilation section at back.
This is one of our favourite products. It truly does deliver all that is promised without breaking the bank. Slumming it in a traditional bag is not for the weak, apart from the psychological effect of uncovered camping and the feeling you'll be murdered at any time!! Rain, ants, spiders stolling across your face frankly freaks you out, so for the sake of a few grams the hooped hood gives a genuine tent experience without the weight and bulk, but most of all even in foul weather you're going to get a good nights sleep unlike your mate who was awake all night picking nature out of his teeth!
Still not convinced read Pablo's Woodlife blog and his excellent review.
