I've talked her into bivy bags before.... but getting the damn frost off the down bags in the AM sucks trying to get rolling for the elk and such.. back to the tipi type ideas...


Look a little closer and you'll see that this is very near to Kevin and Ed T's shelter... Here's another pic without the tarp on the font. The peak height is 8' and the footprint is roughly 8x10. My setup weighs a bit more, but it only set me back $50. This will be it's third season. If it does wear out I can replace the tarp for $15 and be good for another 3-4 years.
