Keep your quilt and spare layers bone-dry without hauling a heavy dry bag. This ultralight polycro pack liner creates a fully waterproof barrier inside your pack while adding almost zero weight.
Ultralight Polycro Pack Liner
The Ultralight Polycro Pack Liner is a minimalist waterproof barrier designed to keep your gear dry inside your backpack. Built from high-clarity polycro film, it weighs almost nothing yet provides dependable protection against rain, moisture, and condensation during long-distance hiking.
Why You Need a Pack Liner
Even with a good backpack, moisture can enter from heavy rain, creek crossings, or humidity. A pack liner creates a sealed internal layer that protects essential items like your down quilt, clothing, and electronics — the gear you absolutely cannot afford to get wet.
