Get packing What we use
Everything that doesn’t like getting wet is in dry bags. Rather than one big one, I went with a few smaller ones. Makes it easier to pack and pull stuff out as needed. You can colour code. Also a handy storage solution for first aid / survival gear.
What else we use
I consider my pack pretty waterproof…has no integrated cover.
A couple of sea-to-summit event compression bags and some from Kmart. They are actually ok. Compresses items down to a nice size for efficient packing. Also include a couple of plastic shopping bags for wet stuff and some snap seal bags for storage of food items and the like.
What we’re considering
Ideal for protecting valuables, mobile phones, GPS, keys, small maps etc.
