Piñon Bivy by Katabatic Gear

Nice product and service!

To start with, GGG has a perfect service. This specific Bivy is not available in Europe as far as I know so I took the gamble to get it from the USA. Shipping was extremely fast and neat. Package was well packed. I can only say that it went smoothly. I tested the bivy in the garden and it is great. Lightweight and lots of space with my 192cm (6 feet, 3.6)? Thnx again GGG Greetings from the Netherlands

Cycling around the world - bivy setup

It’s a very nice bivy! I chose this one because I like the ample mesh and zip length. It’s made well. However I find that if you don’t wanna be eaten by mosquitoes you need to be in a down bag or they’ll bite you through the fabric, unless you pitch it very carefully, I often don’t get quite enough lift out of my pitches. I think this is an issue with many bivys from many brands so no hard feelings though! lol. I use this in combination with the TNT tarp and Zpacks Carbon pole.

Love this bivy!

Roomy, easy to set-up, breathable, and has a number of great little quality-of-life features such as the small elastic straps for holding down my sleeping pad. Love knowing I'm supporting a small business, especially one that makes such a quality product. I've successfully set this up both with my Z-Poles and also by running a guye line overhead and tying off to that. My buddy got the same bivy and put together some little tensioning lines to go between his poles and the elastic loops on the bivy, and that seems to work the best of all the options!
