RE: Keeping sleeping bags dry

I don't use a bag...but I carry one. I use it for just about everything
but the pack liner is supposed to be for. For some reason, it rarely
rains where I am. Drought just seems to follow me around. If I'm pretty
sure it might rain, I do go ahead and put the trash bag in as a liner
first.

That's what I use, but Jerry said he stuffs his bags straight into his
pack.
I may have misinterpreted his statement, but I thought he meant without
a
waterproof bag of any type.

I use trash compactor bag which I get at my local Lowe's home
improvement
store.  They are pretty durable.
