Love mine. Tilt locks solid easily, pan takes a little more effort on mine to get the lever right enough. Might need to see if I need to add a washer or something. It's amazing for the weight though.
Pissing is the easiest thing in a tarp, don't even have to get out of your bag. Probably my favorite feature of floorless shelters.
A bivy is going to give you condensation problems most likely unless it breathes really really well. Skip the bivy and get a slightly larger tarp if you're worried...
Already been hunting in Utah but leaving at 330p today for the first 4 days of WY opener. Then headed back the 15-24. 4 tag holders, hoping we don't need to go back with our rifles 🦵🏻💪🏻🦵🏻💪🏻
Savings route:
After 11 years you'd have your house paid off and $87K in your savings account
Early payoff:
You'd pay the house off at year 6.75. Taking your P&I ($867) + the $500 and saving that for 4.25 years; you'd have $77K
Not paying off your mortgage at 2.5% yields you 13% more wealth...
This might be true for the average American family, but this is Rokslide... We each need 2 bedrooms converted to gear rooms for all the stuff everyone here recommends. Hell, I need to build another shed to be able to store my soon to arrive tiller that I didn't know I needed 😜
I have both, but my bivy isn't weatherproof. I only use a bivy when it's skeeter season aka for scouting.
During hunting season if precipitation is forecast, I bring the tarp.
If no precipitation and no bugs, I don't bring either.
I cannot imagine trying to wait out a long rainstorm in a bivy...
I do it all the time with my tarp tents. I'd rather have my trekking poles with me so I find a stick or 2 to replace them. Added benefit is you can hang gear on them as long as they're not smooth!
