I have encountered dogs in Georgia and I would be frankly terrified of one approaching me if I was lying down in a bivi at night. Well put it this way, I have read a bit about ultralight tents over the past two days, and I have decided that I want the flexibility to camp because I don't want to plan out everything in my journey (I don't think of it so much as an expedition as a walk into the beyond). It’s also a great choice for wild campers, people bikepacking and fast packers who need a lightweight, easy-to-pitch shelter that doesn’t compromise on protection from the elements.

A bivi bag can be a real joy in the right conditions but utter misery when the weather turns against you. It has a lot of stray dogs, which I anticipate having to fend off not infrequently with pepper spray in the middle of the night if I am sleeping in the Oex Bush Pro. The bivi bag comes with lightweight aluminium pegs and guylines to help secure your pitch, ensuring a stable shelter even in windy conditions.Missed payments will show on your credit file potentially making credit harder to obtain and will result in late fees being added to the debt. Google Earth is the best tool for planning IMO, you can draw on routes to export to a mapping app on your phone (I use OSMand with downloaded contours for hiking and MAPS. the OP mentioned ‘stealth’ which is where a hooped bivi wins over a tarp or a tent in having a more minimal presence than either of them, very useful if you’re riding then cheeky camping wherever you can find. While pepper spray is effective against bears(in the USA the success rate is high) I'm not sure when you are trying to get some sleep how useful it would be.

I am actually not that experienced with how to approach airing a tent in a cramped urban hostel, maybe there is some practical advice you can give. Perfect for fast packers and wild campers, the waterproof bag protects you from the elements and comes with aluminium pegs and guylines to help secure your pitch. This will not need a tarp to keep it dry, unlike gortex which will soak through during long periods of rain.Secondly, it’s well-suited to those transitioning from traditional tents to more minimalist camping solutions. The OEX Salamanda Bivi Bag is a versatile piece of camping gear, but it truly shines in the hands of certain types of outdoor enthusiasts.
