Maybe I am not using the search correctly. But, I can't find anything on setting up the BB as a makeshift bivy. Anybody else know of any posts pertaining to this?

Recycled plastic tarp ground cloth and Ridgerest pad. I don't have a WBBB yet. I am looking at some bug net bivy bags. But if I can rig the BB with hiking poles and/or my bike frame, I would prefer it over a bug bivy.
Might get some ideas from this post...

Here's a pic of my old Claytor JH set up on the ground. It's actually quite easy. Simply wrap the tarp ridgeline around a couple of hiking poles and stake it out. Stake out the sides. Attach the bug netting to the same poles...finished.
This pic may show it better.
Thats pretty neat set up there Miguel
