A backpack is your closet, cistern, dresser, and pantry for any backcountry adventure. It’s a wonderful place to shove all your stuff and hope that it fits. With a correctly sized, properly packed backpack, you can carry lots of weight long distances with a surprisingly minimal effort.
Summiting, skiing, biking, hiking, and around-town lugging can all be achieve with a simple daypack. These packs are light, cheap, and an essential item on most outdoor adventures. Many backpackers and paddlers bring a small day pack for day adventures away from camp. If you are looking for a way to carry water, some food, and maybe a layer or two, then look no further than a daypack. Daypacks carry 40 liters or less and come with a variety of straps, accessories, and features.
