That's a happy ending.

Thanks for the link!

I have to admit, a bivvy is one thing I'm missing and should add to my short hike PSK. I usually think about the ability to start a fire when I ponder a situation like the hiker faced. I also think in terms of building a debris shelter, but stuffing leaves into a bivvy is certainly more expedient.

I guess I could roll myself up like a burrito into my heatsheet with some leaves as added insulation. lol
