Spring bear camp 2023.

That's a really nice truck. Looks like it could use some new tires though.

My brother and me hydrating at elk camp a couple of years ago.

Tarp pitch from 4 nights of tarp/bivy elk camp. Got the entire sleep system down to about 6lbs with a single trekking pole, and the trekker came in handy packing out elk. Probably didn’t need the tarp. Had zero wind/rain all 4 nights to truly test it. Really like the Borah Bivy after 3 years of using it. The tarp flap in the front pulled around to a stake on the side like a little door.

Show us your 'Borah Bivy' camp setup? I'm curious. I wondered if I might get by with one 'accessorized' with a light tarp in case of precipitation (rain or snow).

Sure thing, just this set up (Borah Gear Bivy https://borahgear.com/, Thermarest NeoAir XLite wide pad, Trekology air pillow, and Snugpack Jungle Blanket XL) on top of a piece of Tyvek:

How well is the water resistance for the bivy bag? Do you get damp inside from condensation and sweat?

Haven’t had a chance to test the water resistance but you can look up the material they make it out of and figure it out pretty easily, more splash resistant than anything. I use it under a tarp because I was waking up with ants crawling up my legs and lots of bug bites, plus wolf spiders, peace of mind.

It breaths alright, one rainy humid night last year I had wayyy to warm of a down sleeping bag and with condensation/sweat it got a little wet, but I’ve ditched that bag for early season and it hasn’t been an issue. I’d say it’s as expected, but better than I thought it would be.
