Re: [Philmont]: Packing your sleeping bag in an int frame pack - how ?

Ditto -- but I add my waterproof pack cover as well, just sort of wrap it
around things. It's an extra safety measure to keep my sleeping clothes and
bag dry and it's readily accessible when needed.

I don't use the stuff sack inside my internal frame. I just stuff the
pack,
pillow, thermarest and sleep clothes into the bottom compartment.
