Bivy Snap Tarp

The Bivy Snap Tarp is an ultralight 8’ x 10’ shelter designed to do more than a standard tarp. Built for changing mountain conditions, it can be pitched as a traditional flat tarp, snapped into a bivy-style shelter for sleeping, or converted into a bothy sack for emergency wind and rain protection.

Whether you’re bikepacking, alpine climbing, ski touring, fastpacking, or building a lightweight emergency kit, this shelter is designed to give you multiple uses in one compact package.

At just 17 oz (482 g), the Bivy Snap Tarp offers serious versatility without adding unnecessary weight to your pack.

Materials & Construction

The tarp is made from 1.1 oz silicone-impregnated nylon fabric, chosen for its balance of low weight, packability, and weather resistance. All seams are sealed for waterproof performance.

The six primary tie-out points are reinforced with Challenge EPX 200 laminate fabric for added durability in high-stress areas. Additional reinforced points along the ridgeline are designed for trekking pole support and stable A-frame style pitches.

Shelter Modes

Flat Tarp Mode

Use it as a traditional 8’ x 10’ tarp for overhead coverage, cooking shelter, camp protection, or minimalist sleeping setups.

Bivy Mode

Using the integrated snap system, the tarp can be enclosed into a bivy-style shelter for up to two people.

Bothy Mode

The snap system also allows the tarp to convert into a fast-deploy communal shelter for up to three people seated or squatting, helping block wind, rain, and cold during storms, transitions, or emergencies.
