For solo adventures in the backcountry you really can't do much better than Black Diamond's Bipod Bivy, threading the needle between lightweight functionality and spacious comfort. That's an admirable trick to pull off in the bivy world!

BD employs a single pole design to not only shed weight but to create a seriously spacious environment for your head and shoulders, eliminating the dreaded "bivy claustrophobia." ToddTex waterproof fabric, made famous by the classic Bibler mountaineering tents of years past, wraps the bivy in a breathable, highly durable, and waterproof shell. A large zippered entry is further buttressed by a huge mesh panel to keep the creepy crawlers at bay, add ventilation, and allow a night of star gazing in blissful solitude.
