Outdoor Research Alpine XT Bivy

The Alpine XT Bivy keeps your shelter system streamlined when the route is long, the weather is uncertain, and every gram matters. Updated for 2026, it combines waterproof protection, high airflow, and a surprisingly roomy interior for solo mountain travel. From alpine traverses to minimalist summit pushes, it helps you sleep outside with less condensation, faster setup, and more comfort than you’d expect from a bivy.
