  Multipurpose bivy bag / poncho / windbreak shelter

  Originally developed as a survival tool for Swedish air force pilots, Hilleberg's patented Bivanorak is a bivy bag/sleeping bag cover, rain garment, portable windbreak, and emergency shelter, all in one – all in a 20 oz package. The Bivanorak is made from a lightweight, tough, PU-coated waterproof/breathable fabric and has fully taped seams. The Bivanorak is cut long and wide to provide room for both a sleeping bag and pad in bivy bag mode. Its lower hem and cuffs have draw cords (those in the cuffs are elastic) which can be secured shut to keep warmth in and rain and snow out, and its long front zipper makes entry and exit easy. The large hood will easily accommodate the hood of a sleeping bag, yet it can be cinched tightly around your face. Combine a Hilleberg Bivanorak and Tarp to create a highly effective – and incredibly lightweight – shelter system. The Bivanorak is worn anorak-style and can be adjusted to a variety of lengths. Simply pull the bottom hem up inside the body of the Bivanorak and tighten the draw cord around your waist or tuck the extra fabric under your pack’s hip belt. There is even enough room to carry a backpack underneath!

  A note on colors: Fabric dyes have natural variations, so the actual tent color may look slightly different from what is pictured here.

Tune M1 Pop-Top Truck Camper Review: Winter Storm Tested
  The rain turned to snow just as I pulled into the campsite.

For Nepali Guides on Mount Everest, Daily Life Is Full of Danger
  Every year, a vast ecosystem of Nepali mountain workers helps hundreds of climbers ascend and then descend Mount Everest.

Why Time Feels Slower During Your Hardest Workouts
  I’ve always been partial to Dunbar, the character in Catch-22 who seeks out boredom and discomfort in order to make time pass more slowly, thus effectively prolonging his life. It’s a sensation that’s familiar to any endurance athlete: the seconds agonizingly stretching as your effort mounts. Forget cardiovascular benefits and weight control; maybe the real life-extending power of exercise is...
