A lightweight alternative to a big tent? Hit me baby! I use it when I am going ultralight and know it won't rain (because there is no fly). But it is "fly" because of the mesh…

Got this for an AT hike, and fell in love. It's super light in the pack, and does everything a bivy does for a fraction of the normal weight. I use this with a tarp over my…
