    It is on the inside and it is on the area that rolls down so I would say no.

    The Circuit is not a waterproof backpack. You need a pack cover in the rain.

    It is water resistant at best.

    I would just ditch the Supershelter. I couldn't imagine using a space blanket as part of my winter set up. Of course you are going to get wet. I don't see any other alternative.

    I use a 3/8" plex pipe cut to size on my Amok XL. The 1/2" will probably work but it may be a little tight.

    I only use it on the head end. I find the foot end is not needed and keeps falling out.
