Yeah I used to do that often and still do occasionally. Pikaus are handy because you can just chuck them in the wash as well.
Another small pack that is handy are the likes of the 25l huntech ones. Don't take up much room in your main pack, only about $100, lightweight, quiet, have a few pockets and you can easily chuck them in the washing machine as well. They are not super durable though so won't last forever but for the price not so much an issue.
