Osprey Backpack Rain Covers, 50% Off
Ever been backpacking in the rain?
So has just about anyone with more than a few days of trails under our boots. I used to prefer using a garbage bag with a cutout for the straps and hipbelt and some duct tape to reinforce it and keep it from being baggy, but that was until someone gifted me a packcover. The garbage bag packcover still works if needed, but the fabric packcover doesn’t snag & tear on every last branch along the trail (nor make me glance back all the time so I can collect any snagged bits of plastic that might hang around forever), it’s much quieter, and it’s about the same weight as the garbage bag version.
Normally packcovers are almost as expensive as a small daypack, but the small and large Osprey rain covers are marked down from $34 to $12.98 for the small and $16.98 for the large. Mountain Gear doesn’t do direct-links, so go there and search for “raincover”, the sale ones are blue-gray in the picture and have a red sale price below them.
