  1. I've just taken delivery of an Alpkit 30 Litre Drysack. It's a bit like
    an Orlieb drybag - similar material and same closure system, but with a
    mesh shoulder harness, and a chest and waist strap. I bought it mainly
    as a daysack to take camera gear. I've got a couple of Lowepro camera
    bags with raincovers, but don't really trust them in a downpour.

    I might even use it as a drybag in my trecking rucksac, and then use it
    for daytrips from a basecamp, rather than use the emptied main sack for
    day trips.

    If interested, it's here:

    Tell us how you get on with it - I'm interested in it as a lightweight
    day sack. I do see one or two reviewers finding the straps too
    slippery and the waist band a bit thin.
