If I have to cross a lake, would my gear be fine? Is it that waterproof?

If you put your camera in it and it falls overboard, it should be fine until you can fish it out. I was kayaking on a lake for 3 days and it was fine, although it was always secured and never in the water.

I have used mine in rain and splashing waves while canoeing. Properly rolled (read fully) and snaped, you will be fine in those conditions (on Zodiac excursions, kayaking, etc.). If you are talking about fully submerging the bag while you wade or swim across a river, I can't help you. If inside a ziplock snd then inside this dry sack, probably.

No. It is fine for putting stuff in and it accidently falls overboard and you grab it out of the water, but we tried to actually take it in the water and everything got soaked. I would recommend you don't buy it for crossing a lake

When I tested the bag in my bathroom sink overnight, it was not waterproof. Sorry. I returned it.

The official word from the manufacture is "water tight". I wouldn't drop it in the lake just for fun, but holds up to nasty weather just fine.

I just got back from a whitewater canoe trip (3 day / 35 miles) using the Baja Dry Bag and I flipped twice and all my gear floated down river. My bag contained a ton of gopro equipment. Everything was nice and dry each night we made camp. Bag was also floating in about an inch of water in our boat basically the entire trip and still had no issues.

if you are in the water it will be fine, not for on land tho. it is like a thin wet suit

I have not submerged it in water completely but my instincts tell me no. It is extremely drop and dirt friendly. But to say it is %100 perfect waterproof I think would be a stretch. The company website says it is but I still wouldn't put it IN water. It is definitely splash proof and a quick dip or rain won't hurt it. So if you have it clipped to your pack or somewhere where it won't always be in water I think you'd be ok. If I had the money I would test it out but I'm not that interested to put the radios life at risk. Hope this helps!

I wouldn't say it is totally waterproof, but it could handle getting wet from a rain shower. The connections are exposed in a mesh pouch on the rear of the unit, so any water that enters that area could get into the ports. The outside case is durable enough to last during an extended camping/ hiking trip. It does have locations sewn to the body that can be attached to a backpack during a hike, but you are better off placing it directly in the sun and letting it charge.

Yes, I found that it is waterproof. I used it during a very rainy weekend and it was great.

I don't know about water proof, as I've never taken it for a swim, but I've ridden through heavy downpours before, and it's never given me any problems.

Its been okay in the rain, my gear hasn't gotten wet but I wouldn't throw it in the ocean or anything.

Short answer is yes. Longer answer is it depends. "Waterproof" depends on depth and exposure time. Lay it in the rain no problem. In the sink probably OK. Bottom of the lake - risky. I have carried this daily since I got it. Holding up very well

We don't think it's waterproof, but it might be water resistant. We've never had it around water as we use it to carry geocache supplies in it and it stays in the car most of the time. I bought this as a gift for my husband and he loves it. He says he would definitely recommend it depending on what you are using it for. It can get heavy depending on what you have in it.

Im not sure if it's qualified as a water proof, but seems like it. I would feel safe to walk with this bag under rain. Definitely wouldn't swim with it :-)

Well Jack this bag is water proof. How ever I haven't fully tested that ability. For when I'm out day hicking and it rains I and my gear are under a rain poncho. Also just because a product say waterproof doesn't mean it stays that way forever.Take care of your gear and it will take care of you

No, I don't think so. If you want water proof, you need to have the bag you put this in be waterproof.

It is not designed or made to be a waterproof bag, but it can definitely hold water outside without risking the electronics in inside and closed pockets. But again, it depends on how much waterproof you are looking for so it may not be for you.

I would not call it waterproof. Mine has been camping in the rain and it survived quite well, but I would be wary of using it in really wet conditions.

It's sturdy, I've had mine for about 3 years. Never done a hunting with it, but have bumped into things with it and it holds it's site. Couldn't tell you if it's waterproof. Hope this helps!
