Review: For Costa Rica- loved it! - I bought this bag for a trip with my son to Costa Rica. We planned on doing lots of hiking and wanted a bag we could carry on our backs, something water resistant and that would generally keep the bugs out. When it arrived I was very happy with the overall quality. My son, who had planned on bringing a vintage looking canvas bag decided to get an Earth Pak for himself for our trip. These bags and their contents where all we had for two weeks of camping and hiking. Due to their size we were able to carry on our Earth Pak and place them in the luggage carrier above our heads during all our flights. We travelled all over Costa Rica for our trip. From Monteverde down the coast to the more remote Drake Bay/Corcovado area. During our travels from Sierpe to Drake Bay you take a bumpy, windy, wet 45 minutes on an open topped boat through the wetlands and around into the bay. We boarded with tourists and locals. Most tourists were lugging on large canvas roller bags while locals carried the bare necessities in packs JUST LIKE this Earth Pak. In my first picture you can see my bag resting at my feet in the boat to Drake Bay. Everyone's bag sloshed around in several inches of water for the entire 45 minute boat ride. When we arrived there were no docks to pull up to. You literally jump out of the boat into waist deep water and the captains toss you your bags. Several tourists on the boat with us were visibly upset when they were handed their large, wet and now extremely heavy canvas roller bags. My son and I grabbed our bags, put them on our backs and jumped out of the boat into the water and easily hiked up to our hostel. No struggling with canvas rollers along muddy dirt roads. When we arrived, our contents were bone dry and we were able to pull out fresh dry towels and dry pajamas! Helpful tips: 1) Because this bag is basically one large container we were REALLY glad to have purchased packing cubes. The black mesh packing cubes kept my various packed items separate and made it easier to grab one item out without having to refold everything each time. 2) I carried a first aid kit with us which was kept in a hard sided plastic waterproof container. This was totally unnecessary as the bag was completely waterproof during our entire 2 week trip- I could have just gone with a plastic bag and saved the weight and space. The one con: We did a lot of walking and heavy duty hiking with these bags on our backs. I do wish that the bag had a hip belt system. The shoulder straps were padded enough for our liking and the straps were pretty comfortable. The bags are big enough to be heavy when filled with our stuff and a hip belt would have been helpful for those longer hikes to redistribute some of that weight. The bag held up wonderfully our entire trip! The best purchase we made! It's been 9 months since our trip and we've since used these bags for hiking, camping, overnights and day trips. It's a ridiculously useful size. Recently one small seam between the small bag and large compartment in our yellow bag has come undone. This doesn't affect the integrity or water proofing of the bag at all so I haven't contacted EarthPak. I have no doubt they would take care of it since a small note in the bag when it arrived mentioned a life time guarantee. Overall I am so happy with my purchase. Maybe my best desertcart find yet. PROS: - low cost - good quality - durability - water proof!!! (We put that to the test time and time again!) - size (small enough to be a carry on) large enough to pack a lot in it CONS: - large enough to be heavy - no hip belt - one seam has come undone but not integral to the bag TOTALLY WORTH IT! BUY THIS BAG.
Review: Rugged Bag from an Outstanding Company. - I'm leaving this review a little late, but now I'm really able to sing the bag's (and the company's) praises. I'm a charter boat captain, and this has been my go bag since I bought it four years ago. Perfect size for my warm layers, foul weather gear, and miscellaneous items like knife, flashlight, documents, etc. It's been rained on, hosed down, even dropped in the water, and my gear is always dry. Recently the non-waterproof zipper on the outer front pocket failed, and I contacted Earth Pak just to see if they offered a repair service; I'd have happily paid. I was not, however, offered a repair service, but what I did receive after sending a photo of the failed zipper and a copy of my original invoice was a brand new replacement bag fully covered by their most excellent five year warranty. Highly recommend.

## Features

- Complete Waterproof Protection: 100% waterproof to ensure your gear stays completely dry while traveling, kayaking, biking, commuting, camping, and fishing.
- Easy To Use: Designed with a roll-top closure and single reinforced strip to ensure water stays out. Simply fold the bag down 3-4 times, buckle, and you are ready to go!
- Plenty Of Extra Storage: Equipped with pockets on both the inside and outside of the bag. A large splash-proof zipper on the outside for quick grab and go items, and a built-in zippered pocket, mesh compartment, & key ring on the inside.
- Safe For Travel: Compact and lightweight for easy carry on an airplane & roll top closure provides ultimate protection while traveling. Convenient D-Rings attached to both shoulder straps and MOLLE system looping both provide anchor points to latch onto while boating or biking.
- Built For Comfort: Constructed with an ergonomic padded backpanel, reinforced contoured shoulder straps, and low-profile sternum strap providing ultimate comfort by taking the weight off your back. In addition, a heavy duty waist-belt relieves added pressure to help support your load.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many cans of beer can I fit in this bag? Are the straps sturdy enough to support the weight?**
A: I wouldn't recommend keeping beer in this, as it won't stay cold. Search for Icemule for a cooler/drybag. 
That being said, if you are looking to get an idea of what 35L means in real terms, you could easily get a 30 pack of cans in here. If you also put ice in there, it would be heavy as heck and it wouldn't be comfortable to carry.
I use this in the dry storage in my kayak to put clothes and towels, first aid kit, lunch, and so forth in. It works great for that.
It's not a cooler, if you want a drybag cooler this is not it. Again look into Icemule, i believe their largest offering has backpack straps.

**Q: Is this material 500D?**
A: Yes. its 500d PVC material

**Q: Is the bag comfortable to carry?**
A: It's like any other pack. I'm more interested in will it to the job at hand which is keeping the contents dry, which it does. It's as comfortable as any other pack that I've owned.

**Q: What is height dimension when rolled closed?**
A: Pack is about 21 inches high if you fold opening three times for a good seal.   If you fold twice you may get another inch.  The pack is a good 18 inches wide and has a 6 inch foot on bottom, pretty roomy for waterprooF.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worked very well on a week-long canoe trip.
*by E***L on June 20, 2025*

My son used this for a week-long trip canoeing dozens of miles around in the Minnesota-Canadian border area (Boundary Waters Canoe Area). With this and a similar, much smaller model, he could carry most of the gear he needed for the week (tent, food barrels, and fishing rod aside). This one housed his sleeping bag, various layers of changes of clothes, outerwear for rain and cooler hours of the day, mess kit and food prep supplies, toiletries, a modest sized tackle kit, first aid kit, meds, his backup canteen amd his water filtration, shoes, stuff he needed for class (this was for college credit)...the capacity was great for his needs. When not in use, he easily strapped his canoe seat cushion and life vest to the outside, along with other tidbits he kept for easy reach. He is an underweight guy, and found this pack to bear its load comfortably as they portaged overland (sometimes as far as a mile); we appreciate soind design and good padding. It kept stuff quite dry and didn't sustain any compromising wear and tear. Buckles and bits operated smoothly and dependably. Outer straps and spots to clip things to made for handy space to attach stuff that were easier to keep on the outside. We're really happy with the quality and how well it suited his needs. We certainly recommend it for similar situations. In the picture, this bag is the light gray and black one with the silver cup fastened to it. We hope it gives good reference on size (we bought the largest one, 80 or 80-some L capacity. Also, kid is about 5'8" or 5'9").
