I'm packing for an AT trip- Partnership Shelter to Katahdin- 1656 miles in about 75 days starting 6/14. I can't decide if it's worth bringing my pack cover: It just doesn't seem to help much (any?).
Pack- Osprey Atmos 65
cover- ZPacks large cuben fiber 41.2g
Everything in the pack is in a drybag or a ziplockBase weight including pack 12.5 lbs
Any thoughts?
