Abstract
A personal shelter, such as a bivouac sack (10), tent or sleeping bag, for extracting internal moisture and venting. The personal shelter includes a top (14), bottom (12) and end (16) piece, and defines a foot end (17) and head end (18) at opposite ends of a longitudinal axis. The personal shelter also includes a first opening (40) at the foot end, a second opening (20) near the head end, and a semi-rigid duct (30) with an inlet end that is approximately colocated with the first opening and an outlet end that is approximately colocated with the second opening. The semi-rigid duct receives outside air through the first end, mixes the received outside air with moist air within the personal shelter, and exhausts the mixed air through the second end.
