[WTS] Miles Gear Pico Bivy

I'm selling my Miles Gear Pico Bivy that I got a few months ago secondhand for my 5 nights on the High Sierra Trail and Mt. Whitney. I also had one test night in my backyard. Prior owner used it for a week trip in Idaho. I used a Thermarest Neo Air Large pad and it fits perfectly. Plenty of room and I’m 6’2”. Kept the bug netting open and never had condensation issues. Added a lot of warmth and sometimes didn’t need my 20-degree quilt when temps were over 60F. I slept well. Easy and quick to roll out after a long day and roll up in the morning. No rips or damage. Comes with stuff sack and tyvek ground cover.

You may want to check out the bivy on the Miles Gear website: http://www.milesgear.com/PicoBivy.html

It’s made with a tyvek floor sewn and taped to a polypropylene membrane top that is breathable and waterproof. It’s a medical grade fabric that has been compared to eVent elsewhere in forums.
