Spirit West is now producing a 2 man light weight Bothy Bag, made to order, under the Cyrex Brand. Comes with a round port style window and high visibility banding. Price comes in around $120. Great idea for an emergency storm shelter. It appears that some minds do think alike. Spirit West is now producing a 2 man light weight Bothy Bag, made to order, under the Cyrex Brand.

It fits in the palm of your hand.Will have the price point in a few days.
