Waterproof Pack Covers

[AlaskaEd]

What's everyone using for waterproof pack covers? I have one with an integrated hood, but it's too small for my Barneys pack. It never got much use anyway so I can't say if it worked great or not.

S2S for me too. Sometimes just the pack cover...but if there's a chance i will not make it back to spike camp (unexpectedly stuck in the woods overnight) I take the poncho tarp. Converts into a decent shelter. Small pkg and weight penalty.

I called Jim at Jimmy Tarps and he had exactly what I wanted. It came in and I thought it was way too big...but I was way too wrong. I can shed my pack and completely tuck in the hip belt and all straps for water protection. Jim is a hunter first and foremost and his pack cover is built with that in mind.

^^ Thats what i used last year. Very simple and handy little cover.

Kevin- I'm in the market for a new pack cover. Is there a specific size you ordered from Jim? I think I know the size I want, but your post has me thinking that maybe I don't know...

Not sure if this will fit your Barney's or not, but I really like this cover.

Check out the Hooded Pack fly from Mystery Ranch. With the hood up, you avoid any water running down the back of your rain jacket's hood, directly into the yoke of the backpack. Works well.

I don't recall a size. I told Jim the size of my pack (cubic inches and L+W) and he made the call. Experience has taught me it's better to have too much (larger) cover than too little.

REI-off the shelf, cheap, light, functional. Just make sure it sized for the bag...lol.

I use a drybag strapped into my nice frame/ loadsling. Let it rain! Keeps blood off my extra clothing too.
