I used a 1 man bivvy tent that I will no longer carry. It's the wrong color and I can make shelters as needed.
Hi Wildman. Sounds like a nice trip, avoiding IED's notwithstanding.

I really hope that lighter incident wasn't something deliberate.
I'm curious, what was wrong with the bivvy color? No white after Labor Day?

Actually, just re-read your post--so, it's supposed to be an E&E safe color?
