Our answer is “when it uses two fibre glass poles rather than one or a separate fly sheet”, but no it doesn’t matter. Imagine waking up and the first thing you see is the sunrise or an inquisitive sheep giving you the eye.

It is treated with what is known as a Hydrophillic Polyurathane (PU) coating to raise the hydrostatic head to >5000mm. What is the deal with very small tents (or bivvy bags with supporting poles) vs more basic bivvi bags in regards to safety from bears and dogs, including from a situational awareness perspective? I've got extended guy lines on mine, which allows me to use my second trekking pole to change the direction of pull of one end, slightly increasing headroom over one end. Also if you know any good summary of the best cheap ultralight tents or tarps/bivvis available in the UK (eg if a magazine which reviews them produces an annual roundup of the best ones, or if there is a particularly good reddit thread on the subject) I would be keen to check it out.In summary, although it is highly expensive and rivalling some of the better one person tents as a purchase, the Rab Ridge Raider has the best performance of any bivvy bag we’ve tested.

When set up it creates an excellent integrated shelter, with room to read and wriggle around inside without sacrificing heat too much. Let me tell you that it is exceedingly quick to put up, and at around 240cm long, there is plenty of room inside for a rucksack, sleeping mat, sleeping bag and person. I am hoping to fit both inside the bivvi bag, or maybe I can just have the self-inflating mat underneath the bivvi bag.

The bivi wraps around your sleeping bag and includes a big hood which can completely cover encompass your head and face.
