include deep mesh side pockets, Z-Rest back padding (not included), compression straps convertible to lashing
straps & waist belt buckle.

ease of use and reliability

a nixtipitarp design

staff or tent poles.  The tarp without the stakes and pole and made with 1.1 oz silnylon, weighs
only 20.8 ounces.  Floor area ~56 sq ft.

Side Note:  The Quest Outfitters team has made one these, it is an amazing design that can take both wind loads and snow loads.  Its versatility in design can be used as a tipi, a tarp, an A-frame
or a lean-to.  With the easy to follow instructions and everything included in the kit, we feel just
about anyone could make this project and you will be glad you did.

wpe55.jpg (6812 bytes) wpe6.jpg (41796 bytes)
   
This ultra-lightweight system helps to eliminate heat loss and keeps your sleeping bag insulation dry adding extra warmth and comfort during cold or damp nights. It also
protects your bag from the elements and exterior wear and tear providing you many extra years of use from your bag. Two bivy sack designs to choose from. [View 2 using
a waterproof breathable top and coated taffeta tub including noseeum, thread, hook & loop, zippers & pattern costs approx. $59 to make].

Design #1: Basic design that minimizes weight and assembly time. Hook and loop closure and rainflaps along the top of the hood opening keeps the elements out. Simply
pulling back the hood accesses optional built-in no-see-um netting.

Design #2: Uniquely designed hood has 2 reversible pull zippers along each side so the hood can be pulled back when it is not needed. Rainflaps and hook and loop hood
closure keeps the elements out. Simply pulling back the hood accesses optional built-in no-see-um netting

Suggested fabrics:  Top and Hood- waterproof/breathable (Stormshield, Gore-Tex,  Weathertek). Bottom Tub- lightweight, waterproof (coated taffeta, ripstop, oxford).
Netting- No-see-um

Depending on fabric selection the completed project weights approximately 16 oz.
Approximate finished size is 88" long x 33" (at head) x 19" (at foot).

Due to each designs size, exact measurements and
instructions for layout are given rather than a pattern.

DESIGNED BY a Quest Outfitters customer WILLIAM GURWELL

Combines the better features of a parka and a poncho. The Parcho provides versatile, comfortable protection for the hiker and backpacker over a wide range of weather conditions.  Size is adjustable to fit both your body and your pack.  High to low ventilation options.  The medium size weighs a mere 7 1/2 oz. and rolls up to the size of a hot dog roll.   Unique cape-like arms cover hands while allowing full use of hands outside and full access inside to shoulder straps, hipbelt, zipper and pockets.  There is even room inside to remove your pack, adjust clothing and put the pack back on.  Large pockets provide dry storage  for extra clothing, maps etc.  Hood volume is adjustable.   Covers to just about the knees or adjusts to your needs. 

Wt. approximations:
Backpack version (avg. male hiker sz)= ~ 7.5 oz.

Non-Pack version (avg. male hiker sz)= ~ 6.5 oz
