The Pelican will work, IF you dry the silica gel before storage every time.
Make sure you have the bigger silica gell containers weighing several ounces.
Keep a few dry ones in ziplock bags for repacking. Dry in a regular oven at low
temp.
I just bought a Lowepro Omni Traveller "Extreme." The Extreme series include a
Pelican case that fits the bag exactly. Perfect for canoe trips.
