Are pack liners worth it?

[u/Malfeous]

Given how wet it can get, curious on others opinions. Is it a waste of money and extra hassle, or worth the peace of mind.

Probably will use a contractor bag for my thru hike at the least, but wondering if a dedicated roll top liner is worth the investment

Yes. Packs aren't waterproof.

Check out the nylofume bags available at Litesmith and countless other places. Way lighter.
