The devil is in the details as they say. Your camping and hiking gear list is not complete until you have storage bags that will keep your clothes dry, your electronics safe, and your food from inviting Mr. Big A. Bear to the picnic.
First, you need to make sure to keep your Smartwool socks, hiking maps, etc dry. aLOKSAK bags were originally designed to keep contents safe from water, but it quickly became evident that the bag was capable of much more. aLOKSAK soon earned the moniker of "the element-proof storage bag"--adding dust, humidity and air to its list of neutralized factors. So don’t forget how miserable it is to have wet stuff before your next camping or hiking trip.
Second, how do you plan on geocaching with a wet iPad? Until there is an app for that, the aLOKSAK will do just fine. Speaking of that, you have to check out this awesome
video. I know you want to order a whole bunch of them now, but wait, there’s more!
The OPSAK does all the same things that the aLOKSAK does, plus is an odor barrier as well. So that means the stinkiest of the stinky can go in there and nobody will ever know. Bears won’t come to your campsite trying to get to your leftovers either. The OPSAK is perfect for storing camp food and carrying it out of the campsite after you have digested it too.
Basically, before you go on your next camping or hiking trip, visit Sheepleg and buy your aLOKSAK and OPSAK storage bags to keep your gear safe and dry.
