Zen Bivy - Clips ease of use in middle of night?

[lifeisgoodsteve]

Hi All,

For those who use the Zen bivy system, how easy is it to clip up one side of the quilt in the middle of the night as it gets colder?

In my WM bag I always start with it zipped open some then gradaully zip in up through the night as the temps drop. For this reason I'm a big fan of zippers and a little wary of the clip system. A Zen bivy CoreZip bed is a possibility but they don't offer the lighter down (900 fill) in that option, just the 650 fill. That's a contender for a truck base camp or when weight is not a concern, but probably not going to happen if packing in on my back.

Do any of you sleep similar and clip the bivy up during the night?

I'm actually wondering the same. But I bit the bullet and my Zenbivy arrives later this week. I'll mess around with it and update if I remember.
