Title: New Bivy
Post by: baker5150 on February 27, 2023, 01:32:56 PM: Time for a new Bivy sack.
My OR Helium only lasted 3 seasons, probably not for lack of quality, I am really hard on gear for some reason.

So far I'm down to 2

Borah Gear Argon90 w/ side zip.
or
Katabatic Pinion.

I'll use it under a SEAK DST.

Any other options I may be missing?

If you can find a Raven for sale and don't want it, let me know. I have had one since 2009; it has no issues, I love it, and I'd buy another.
