Where it makes sense

This oversized open tote suits the last few trips between the car and a developed campsite: clothing pouches, a folded blanket, or dry kitchen containers can travel together without being tightly packed. Its broad opening makes a useful staging area while unloading. We would choose it when access matters more than a sealed lid, and divide dense equipment into smaller loads rather than fill every liter. It is also a plausible return-trip carrier for damp outer gear that will be unpacked immediately at home. The opening remains the decisive limitation: weather-resistant fabric does not make this a dry bag, a dustproof box, or approved wildlife-resistant food storage.

The tradeoff

Open top admits rain and dust; a large filled load can be awkward to carry
