Ziploc, Omniseal and Sandwich Baggies
¢Bring a bag to cover your HT with in case it rains (and you forgot your rain coat).  Sandwich bags work as do special bags from outfitters.
¢Ziploc bags are indispensable.  Have a handful of different sizes.
¢Omniseal or similar make good covers for maps and documents and are sturdier than Ziploc bags.
•An additional reason to have a head set or mic is to tuck your radio out of the way when it rains.
•Make sure that you can talk through the bag if you wrap your HT in it.
•Yes, you can stick documents in a Ziploc bag without any problems.
