Its simple envelope design saves weight and space, easily packing down 500mL. Don't worry about the small cosmetic tear on the stuff-sack pictured: the bivy sack itself is in good shape. Purple on one side, orange on the opposite with HELP written in 2m x 1m letters (this was key for a helicopter rescue in the Palisade Range, Sierra Nevada, in 2003). "The Ortovox Gemini Double Bivvy is indispensable protection against storm, rain and snow. In case of a sudden fall in temperature or accidents in the mountains a bivouac sack may save your life. All bivouac sacks can also be used as water-proof and wind-proof ponchos!! The Gemini double that offers space for 2 persons and their equipment." - www.campsaver.com Weight: 330gm (latest model weighs 390gm) Dimensions: 220cm long x 140cm wide Retail Cost: Average cost new - $78.00 $20.
