Stuff Sacks When Backpacking?

[Hike Monkey]

I use a compression sack and prefer it that was. I can get my 20 degree set in the sack and still make it fit in the bottom "sleeping bag" section of my backpack. I just find it easier and I like it more organized.

Yes, but I do compress it and roll it down once evrything is in it. The actual Cuben liners are too big imo, I would just go with the large rectangular dry bag as another user mentioned above. Or if you prefer, I can make whatever size you’d like if the width and depth of the standard options don’t fit your pack dimensions.

I went with a CF pack liner AND a large rectangular stuff sack to fill the bottom of the liner.

We will see...i tried the open stuff method and I don't think i can accomplish what a stuff sack can from just the downward compression.

I am still putting my clothes in a dry bag however.
