Bothy Bags / Bothy Shelters
A fabric structure that protects from wind and rain by trapping combined body heat from several people. Creates a warmer local environment. A Bothy provides protection from the threat of hypothermia and wind chill.
Single use will not generate enough trapped heat to be considered effective

Bothy Bags Carried & Used by

Mountain rescue teams : search and rescue : sarda, alpine guides : outdoor ed instructors : cross country skiers, walkers and mountaineers
An essential survival aid for any group venturing onto the mountains. A bothy bag shelter or bivi as they are sometimes known can provide groups of people some protection against the risk of hypothernia.

Can your group survive forced stoppage, benightment or injury without one ?

Note : bothy bags are sometimes referred to as a Kisu / kisus ( Karrimor instructor survival unit ). Bothy bags were originally developed by karrimor and at the time were quite quite large & heavy. As a result they not always carried. Currently bothy bags are made from lighter fabric and have over the years proved to be extrememly effective and carried by an increasing number of people on the fells, not just instructors
