I'm trying to narrow down some shelter options for a late September archery elk hunt in colorado with my bow. I can't decide if I want to run an UL setup and have to worry about the elements or run a heavier setup that I know will handle the elements better. I'm only listing my bivy and tarp selections, my bag and pad is the same throughout. My elevation should be anywhere from 8k-11k feet. Anyways, here's my four options:
Option 1
Shelter - bearpawwd canopy 2
Bivy - borah bivy
Total: 1 lb, 8 ounces
Option 2
Shelter - mountainsmith mountain shelter lt
Bivy - borah bivy
Total: 2 lbs, 6 ounces
Option 3
Shelter - bearpawwd canopy 2
Bivy - ID bugaboo bivy
Total: 2 lbs, 11 ounces
Option 4
Shelter - mountainsmith mountain shelter lt
Bivy - ID bugaboo bivy
Total: 3 lbs, 9 ounces
So out of the setups listed above, which one is the most versatile, considering the fact that I could be dealing with snow or rain?
Thanks for the input!
