Reliable companion for the highest mountains

The Assault Futurelight Bivy from The North Face is always ready for long high mountain tours! This rectangular bivvy bag is specially designed to meet the needs of alpinists and trekkers. It offers reliable protection from the elements, as well as space for a backpack and boots. In addition, the bivvy bag features a sophisticated material blend that has waterproof, windproof and breathability properties.
