Dislikes
1. I test all my gear before taking it into the mountains for the 1st time. For the test I sprinkled water over the bivy for 10 minutes and then let the water pool in places for another 15 minutes; before checking for leaks. I found a very thin film of water on the inside, very thin. I do not think it would be an issue in the mountains. I was actually very pleased to not find any water pooled up inside. I think it is just the nature of the material used. I have silnylon tents from BA which function the same. 2. wish the bivy had proper loops to tie down the bivy in wind 3. wish entire bivy was made of the same top layer fabric. this would make the bivy more breathable and lighter and more versatile. for a ground sheet to protect the bivy one could just use polycro or tyvec or dyneema 4. wish zippers were water proof
