Hi Dave Tarp and bivy best suited to quiet camps in tucked away spots for peace and quiet ! Your group camps. Are probably more comfortable with the tent. But if you grow to love it then use it whenever !!! Cheers Adrian

Great little setup Dave. Would look good on Wimbledon Common! You want to tell those noisy neighbours to shut up next time 😅

@cheviotoutdoors no, I was very surprised as I used it in November on a camp that was in an air field and the wind was piercing, felt like -2⁰ so as you can imagine I had a 4 season bag and alot of layers as well as a top blanket, being on a 4 season mat brought me very closed to the bivi top, I was zipped up all night no condensation at all, the bottom vent was pegged out fairly high, I can't really say any other time as I've had the bug mesh zipped open so any warmth from my breathe would have gone straight out, I have yet to get in wet though, tarp is magic , dead strong, the lack of toe outs let it down a bit, but it's quality and durability is miint, I have a small dd superlight that has alot more toe outs so I may give that a go with the strat🤔

@@themountainmen9484 that’s good to hear you got no condensation. On my first pitch video I actually went to peg out the middle of the side but was surprised to see no peg point. Cheers for the information 👍

what a performance, I can pitch my one men tent in less than 4 mins. why would anyone choose this bizarre method of shelter ?

For extra coverage, from sun or rain. Multiple layers drop the temperature underneath, when it is hot. The extra layer gives them.a respite from the rain to put their gear in, to stop it from getting wet/wetter.

@thefucrew9865 space for stashing gear under cover is a definite benefit, especially with the amount of rain this summer 👍

Needs a pair of googly eyes.
