It has a narrow profile, compression straps and standard lash points which make it perfect for any hiking or camping outdoor adventure. You can use it to carry snowshoes, an ice pick and even ski equipment. Or load up large amounts of food in this back pack along with all the clothing you will need for your trip. It has a separate compartment for carrying water bottles or a hydration system. Another zippered compartment for the sleeping bag makes it easy to get at without having to take everything else out. This backpacking equipment has the reputation of being the best outdoor gear on the market.
