Carinthia Observer Plus Bivy Bag The Carinthia Observer Plus is a professional-grade bivy system designed for observation, reconnaissance, and harsh-weather survival. Built with a self-standing double pole support, the bivy creates a small dome at the head area, providing enough internal space to operate equipment such as a rifle, optic, or other mission-essential gear while remaining concealed. The tapered design slopes from the shoulders to the foot end, eliminating straight lines that are easily spotted in the field and improving camouflage. An L-shaped entry with dual zippers allows easy access while storm flaps protect all openings from wind and rain. The front observation panel offers a 180° field of view and can be fully sealed in severe weather, while still allowing a rifle or spotting scope to be positioned through a dedicated observation split. Both the observation opening and main entry include integrated mosquito nets for protection in warmer environments. Constructed from 3-layer GORE-TEX® Gas Permeable laminate, the Observer Plus provides full waterproof and windproof protection while remaining highly breathable. Unlike standard clothing membranes, this technology is permeable to oxygen and carbon dioxide, allowing the bivy to be completely sealed while maintaining airflow—an essential advantage in extreme weather or snow conditions. Five loops on the underside allow an insulating sleeping mat to be secured in place, ensuring stability and comfort during use. Lightweight yet durable, the Observer Plus delivers dependable protection when a tent is not practical or when stealth and mobility are critical.
