Pitching the bivy with the stand-alone rigging (optional item)
- Clip the shock cords (red) from the tub’s corners to the squeeze hooks on the standalone rigging.
- Stake out the ends of the rigging kit cordage so the tub is pulled evenly taut.
- Insert your pole tips into the grommets on the rigging kit.
- Connect shock cord (blue) from Bug Shelter’s apexes (2) to the loops attached to the grommets.
– For better stability, move the stakes further forward at the front and rearward at the rear.
– Adjust the squeeze hook locations as necessary to acheive a good tub height.
– For more information, please see the stand-alone rigging kit’s product page.
Pitching the bivy with the Cirriform Tarp
Connections are the same as to other a-frame tarps
- Clip the shock cords (red) at the tub’s corners to the corners of the tarp.
- Adjust the tension/length of these cords so that the floor is pulled evenly taut.
- Clip the shock cords (blue) at the bivy’s apexes to points above on the tarp’s ridgeline.
- Adjust the cords to raise the apexes to the desired height.
For low pitches of the tarp:
When the Cirriform is pitched low to the ground, use the corner hang loops to
regain height in the tub. The hang loops are located on the seams between the
tarp’s body and beak, several inches up from the corner tie-outs.
Example 1
– Run the cord through the tarp’s hang loop, then clip it back to itself at
the tub.
Example 2
– Run the cord through the tarp’s hang loop, then through the corner tie-
out (or around the stake), and then clip it to the hang loop (or run it back
through the hang loop and clip it back to the tub).
Example 3
– Run the cord through the tarp’s hang loop, then clip it off to end of the
guyline at the stake.
