LOVED the poncho on my 500 mile section of the PCT this year... it's one of my top 5 favorite pieces of gear!!! I used it in a downpour at the northern terminus as I completed 7 years of section hiking the PCT.

A Groundsheet-Poncho is a dynamic 3-in-1 piece of gear; poncho, pack cover, and groundsheet. Our updated design can be configured as a flat groundsheet or footprint for under your tent floor, or the corners can be cinched into a "bathtub" shape with elevated walls to protect from ground water under a flat tarp. It is also sized to fit well in our Hexamid Tent or Hexamid Tarp.

  • Made from the same 1.0 oz/sqyd Dyneema® Composite Fabric as our groundsheets. DCF is inherently waterproof and does not have any coating, water repellent, or potentially harmful chemicals added.

  • When in groundsheet mode the outside of the poncho goes towards the ground. The hood will be underneath covering the neck opening.

  • Large enough to be used as a pack cover over most packs 70L and below.

  • Fitted hood with visor and adjusters keeps water off your face.

  • A visor clip allows you to attach your visor to a hat, preventing it from blowing off in heavy wind.

  • Waterproof zipper at the neck for venting.

  • Half-length separating zippers at each side ensure the sides can't blow open in the wind.

  • Elastic belt at the waist allows you to snug the poncho around you for warmth when needed, or leave it loose for airflow.

  • Can be configured as a flat groundsheet or footprint under your tent floor. The corners can be cinched into a "bathtub" shape to create elevated walls to protect from ground water under a Hexamid Tent,or tarps.

  • Fully taped seams! No seam sealing necessary.

  • Coverage down to about mid-thigh with a small backpack. For more coverage, pair with Rain Pants or a Rain Kilt.

  • The poncho width covers to mid-arms. Expect wet arms. A poncho may not be suitable as your only rain gear in colder weather.

  • All Zpacks gear has a two-year limited warranty against defects in materials or workmanship. Please see our return / warranty policy.

  • Made in the USA.
