Thread: Help -Setting up my Huntech Bivy first time

No hurry - just wondered if you had a photo as it sounds interesting and something I might want to do with mine.

Photos should be self-explanatory. Material for sleeve holding front pole was ‘reusing’ the original bag for the pole from memory. The second pole was an aluminium KIWI CAMPING REPLACEMENT TENT POLE KIT.

Cool - that looks pretty neat. Thanks for taking the time to set it up and take some photos! My bivy is much lower to the ground - I've been thinking of sewing on some more tabs on the front edge to make setting up the front "fly" easier - might give some more options.

Probably not very clear in photos but my Bivy has 2 adjustable straps so you adjust the width I.e make it higher & narrower or wider & lower. Not sure if the Huntech has that?
Mine has the original webbing strap beside the original pole and just a piece of cord beside the added pole

Forgot to add that this is not an original Huntech Bivy as they weren’t available when I was wanting one. It is a knock off North Ridge but same dimensions etc

thats clever..you would definately have to be a bit more wind direction savy though.
one thing Ive found with mine...unlike photos RUMPY put up,I find the tighter I can have the top the better...sure sheds water better anyway.
its awesome near vechille with a camp stretcher to sleep on,heaps of room for me and the dog. Ive taken it up to bush line a few times too...slept in in while away on course with landsar too..take matress from in accomidation and set up over by a fence so my snoring doesnt keep everyone else awake,I sleep like a log with 4" thick foam squab to smooth out the ground LOL.

yeah it has it...never thought about it like that before though...good thinking batman.
