DJ2 member Registered: 01/06/02 Posts: 1348 Loc: Seattle, WA	Bluefish, Word of caution. I used to leave my pack out with the pack cover on as you describe. I quit doing so, however, after some varmint chewed up the pack during the night. Probably going after the salt from my sweat. I now keep it inside the tent and sleep on it.
