Good Bag

By Ranked #1302 - Sleeping Bags May 20, 2009

As for the compressibility of this bad boy, nothing comes close. I got two (one for my sleeping bag and one for my clothes ) and they worked great for giving me more space in my pack. I used them for a trip this past week into the Smokies (Clingmans Dome area) and while we were camping one night, we got a pretty solid rainstorm for about an hour. We had one we were using as a bear bag and we didn't have it covered or anything so it got the full force of the rain. When I checked it the next morning, there was some moisture on the inside of the bag (uh-oh) but nothing was soaked, just sort of damp. Fortunately we didn't have anything in there that NEEDED to stay dry. Overall, I think this bag would be good for backpacking because it gets stuff to such a small size and you've still got your pack to keep out the rain, but if its just this sack and water, I'm not sure how dry your stuff will stay.
