Ships in 1-2 business days | Based in Salida, CO | Est. 2009
The Bristlecone Bivy provides a waterproof floor with a water-resistant upper to protect your quilt from spray and mist. Featuring a large mesh window and long U-shaped zipper extending from waist level across the top, allowing for easy entry and exit. Designed to work well with both pyramid shelters and tarps.
ROBIC® high tenacity yarn and UTS coating provide extra tear strength, abrasion resistance, and it is less slick than a traditional silicone coating. Reduced seams in the floor for increased weather resistance. Full bug protection keeps the creepy crawlies at bay, making the bivy ideal for use under a tarp or floorless shelter.

- Full bug protection
- No-see-um mesh window over your head provides ventilation
- Long zipper allows easy entry and exit
- Waterproof, bathtub style floor
- Increased air permeability reduces condensation while remaining highly wind resistant
- Generous dimensions - allows room inside for gear storage. Both regular and wide versions fit 25" wide sleeping pads
- Internal sleeping pad attachment
- Tie loops at the head and foot to keep the bivy fabric off your face and quilt
- Stake loops at the corners
Included:
- Bristlecone Bivy
