Thanks to both for the reply. I don't guess too many people use the actual bivy sacks.

I'm trying to get my entire camp packed into my daypack. Right now, it takes up just over half the main compartment of my daypack. That's sleeping bag, ground sheet, compact air mattress, and bivy sack. I'm trying to keep it to the absolute smallest bulk possible.

Grudgingly, I'll be trying the Red Allison system this weekend coming up. I've got a cheapo 8 x 6 tarp that I'll trying rigging into an overhead. I'll still use the bivy to keep the lower 80% of my body cavity secure, but leave my head sticking out of the top.
