WTD Bivvy Bag

Decided to try a bivvy bag again, probably along with a tarp once midgie season is over. I don't suppose anyone has one in good condition that's now surplus to requirements? Thanks

Hi I’ve got a snugpak stratosphere that I’ve used 3 or 4 times. It does use poles though but packs very small.

I’d want £90 posted

Thanks, but I'm just after a 'standard' bivy to use with my tarp.

Not sure I need a huge one Ton - is it like the Hunka XL? Also sounds like it might be quite heavy?

Ok, I'll need to consider packsize and weight so I'll maybe wait and see if there's anything else out there. Thanks v much.

I've got a Hunka XL I'd be happy to part with.

I got the XL and after a few uses decided it was too big for me, so got the normal one.

So I take it it's the A90? Chest or side zip? Any chance you could measure the length? Says up to 6ft, which I am. My big agnes mat is pretty huge and doesn't fit inside my current bivvy, hence the search for another.

I have a Borah one you can borrow to see if it is big enough for your needs
DM if you want a try ( not selling it ).
