bivy - it's like fartin in a jar

[Zack Mully]

One of my favorite ways to camp is with a hammock and a tarp. This obviously only works if you're riding someplace with trees (no prob in the NorthEast), but it is much more comfortable and compact than hauling a tent around. A good camping hammock is no bigger than your fist when it is balled up and a tarp is something that has many many other uses and is handy to have regardless. Zack
