EMS has some nice sil-nylon covers that look decent and are fairly decently priced: http://www.ems.com (search on "pack cover").Kevin Rooney said:Too bad pack covers are so pricey -

I'd have bought one. It looks perfect for the job. Also a great fashion statement for hanging out around the Ouluska Brook!Johnnycakes said:I was going to patent this and make millions, but then I realized I would probably be marketing to a fairly limited population (winter bushwhackers)
