Using them for the first time on a short 4 day trip this weekend. Pretty basic design, strong waterproof material with a rolled edge that will trap enough air for them to float. I've used similar bags in the past for kayaking. These are less "refined" than the others with a much more "industrial" stiffer material, but that doesn't seem to be a bad thing. Total steal at $13 if you ask me. :deal

If it is too hard to read the dimensions on the posted picture, they are:
30" x 14.5" x 7"

I've been using them for a few years now...no complaints and very happy with them. I've packed'em full and squished'em down numerous times, they really hold up.

I was holding that exact bag at the local walmart less than a week ago. I was thinking about getting two of them and using them as bag liners.

I see you have the journey side cases, how well do you think these bags would fit in there?

I bought the same bag from Wally World a couple of years ago. It is great, tough....but a bit big/stiff (!) for use as liners in the Uly sidecases tho...IMHO
Don't know if they have a smaller size. They used to sell a 3-pack of the much smaller dry-bags.

Camping gear, along with all the camping cups and that sort of thing. I've seen them.

I have the Journey side cases, and have been using these liners since `07. They are built well, fit great, don`t leak, and are not too expensive.

I bought them locally from Campmor, ://www.campmor.com/
but when I went on their site, I could not find them. If you call them they should know. I paid $26.99 a piece in `07.
You may find them locally, or on-line.

These are priced as good or even better than Walmarts and much more selection.

We have both a Cabela's and Bass Pro and I like Bass Pro the best even though Cabela's is a Nebraska born and based company. The only thing I don't care for is all the stuffed big game. Much better to let these animals live. I'm not talking about the deer that breed like rabbits but bears, musk oxen, mountain sheep, etc.
