1. Must be 4 season.
2. Must be able to fit in ALICE pack.
3. Must be able to accomodate my long legs (I'm 6'4").
4. MUST NOT BE TOO EXPENSIVE.

This is what I'm looking at right now:

Outdoor Research Alpine Bivy
MEC Hybrid Sleeping Bag -20C

Combined price of both is $371. This is roughly the price range I'm trying to stay within. I'm willing to go a little higher if the benefits are worth it, but not too much higher.

Let's hear your input!

You would be better off with a tent, They fold up smaller to. Im no expert on tents but It would be better to have a shelter than a waterproof sleeping bag cover, You could put your geat inside of it and keep it dry.
Could you show me the tent, depends what you are using it for and what the tents condtions are for. Used military gear is usually very good, It has to be tough and work because it could mean life and death for a soldier.
