    A week or so ago. My incredibly tall mate in @cake ’s old RAB, and me in a weird diagonally-zipped old old lightweight bivi bag.

    Mine’s around 700g? -ish with a DIY bug net that velcro’s into the storm flap. Worked fine.

    Definitely not a great sleep on the foam mat, but not as bad as assumed.

    DIY tarps from thin ripstop, one each as a footprint and one over the top of us to limit dew.

    Going out again tomorrow or the day after so need to be prepared for serious rainfall.

  • It’s ripstop nylon, not totally waterproof like a true tarp, but should be enough to reduce the risk of waking up drenched. The material came from a local overstock type place. Only available as and when they get some.
