Description

  Ultralight protection even while tied in

  Black Diamond's Big Wall Bivy is a super light, hooped bivy designed for climbers. Bibler's hoop is a Delrin rod sewn into the sack, so there is nothing to set up and no parts to lose. Made of the same waterproof and breathable ToddTex laminate as used in all Bibler Tents, these bivy sacks collect less condensation than any other bivy bag sold in the U.S. All of the seams are factory seam taped. The floor is coated nylon taffeta, with a slightly tapered foot section for efficiency.

  Both the foot and head ends of the bivy are boxed, so they won't cramp your toes or compress sleeping bag loft. The double storm flap and rain gutter have no sewn seams, so they can't leak. The dual slider zipper opens in the middle for adjustable ventilation and the opening is also covered by zippered no-see-um mosquito netting.

  At 26 ounces, this durable, stormproof shelter is ideal insurance for that wall or alpine bivy. The Big Wall Bivy has a waterproof, welded, fabric-covered Spectra® runner sewn in the side for tie-ins. Comes with a stuff sack. Completely factory seam taped.

  Please note, we cannot ship this product to Canada or the following states due to fire retardancy laws: California, Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey, Louisiana, Minnesota, and Michigan.

Footprint sold separately.

My Favorite Part About Outdoor Skills Is Learning Them
  Readers of Outside’s summer skills package: I envy you. As you read stories about starting a fire, or sharpening a knife, and put those lessons into practice, you’re entering an entirely new world full of exciting discoveries, curiosity, and abilities.

An Injured Hiker Screamed Across a Valley. The Yelling Saved His Life.
  A fallen hiker in the mountains of Washington found himself in dire straits: badly injured, alone, and approaching hypothermia this past Monday, July 14.   According to a press release from the U.S. Navy’s air station on Whidbey Island, the hiker, 31-year-old Ryan Polkinghorn, was climbing the Chickamin Glacier on the northern slopes of 8,440-foot Sinister Peak, a remote, rugged mountain...
This Colorado Town Just Bought Its Ski Area From Corporate Ownership
  In a ski industry era dominated by acquisitions and the slow-but-steady march of conglomerates like Vail Resorts and Alterra Mountain Company, it’s easy to assume the next resort to change hands will be swept into another megapass portfolio. But today’s news? It flips the script. The town of Nederland, Colorado—population 1,500—is buying Eldora Mountain from POWDR.   Watch: This Is What...
Scientists Reveal That a Popular Backpacking Lake Is Chock-Full of Poop

An Ode to the Small But Mighty Wet Wipe
  I recently took an informal inventory of my gear to try and figure out what piece I’ve used the most over the past three months. A favorite pair of Altra running shoes and a Salsa bike were near the top, but as I finished the tally, it became clear that individually sealed wipe packets, like those from Dude Wipes and...
I’ve Been Running—and Sweating Profusely—for More Than 40 Years. These Are the Best Hot-Weather Shorts I’ve Ever Owned.
  If, like me, you’re a ridiculously heavy sweater, you may have been told after a run: “You look like you jumped in a pool.” And if you’ve been paid that compliment, you’re in luck, because the Ciele ATShort is designed for exactly that—dipping in a pool or a lake during or after a run—so they are exceptionally adept at managing...
