- Overview: The
Three Season Sleep System (“3S”) includes a sleeping bag (regular size
about 5ft 11 in) (long over 6 ft) both sleeping bags can fit in the bivy, and the Improved Bivy Cover (IBC), at a total weight of 4.8 lbs.
The Bivy Cover allows the Marine to be
totally encapsulated under extreme weather conditions 10° below freezing and above;
(when used with a ground insulator pad and proper clothing, intermittent
use down to 5°F is achievable). This sleeping bag has an antimicrobial
inner liner that helps to protect against the growth of micro-organisms. An integrated flexible wire allows the Bivy
to stand off from the face (like a one-man tent); the bug-proof screen
window can be fully or partially open.
