Need a bug bivy asap! Will pay for overnight shipping! on 06/02/2012 05:56:39 MDT Print View

I have a trip coming up, and did not account for mosquitoes and other small annoying flying creatures (I thought it'd be cold enough)

I tried the whole "loosely draping" a bottomless net over my sleeping bag, but that just sucked.

There are many fine bug bivy's on the market. I'll buy just about any one of them.

Please sell me one!

This is what most of my group uses. REI has overnight and a no questions asked return policy.

Good luck

Edit - forgot - leave the pole behind to save weight - works just as well.

Contact John West on these forums, he might have one already made that he can ship you. He makes great stuff and you can't beat his prices.
