Thanks guys for the kind words on the Uber Bivy. I built it for my needs. Glad it's serving you well. It is still a bivy, so I would recommend a tent for winter so you can cook in the vestibule.

Hey I used my 11 oz simple bivy as a bag cover on my last winter trip to protect my sleeping bag from spills in the tent. Nice lightweight protection for day hikes gone bad.
