Grab a hydration compatible backpack for $13.96 or Go Bag for $15.53. MY ITEM ARRIVED DAMAGED We do ship every item with extra padding. Despite this, our customers report that around 1 in 1000 products arrives damaged due to mail service mistreatment. While this pack may not be big enough to carry all the gear you need for longer treks, it offers many of the features you would want at a good price. Because it's basically a single compartment stuff bag, I did have to make sure the items inside were distributed properly. But I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the Ozark Trail 45 Liter Backpacking Backpack. Back in 2020 my wife and I decide on a last-minute backing trip to the Wichita Mountains National Wildlife Refuge. Because of this we realized we didn’t have all the gear we needed. We had our shoes, trekking poles, and water bladders. My bags were either to heavy or hurt her back. All this means that your bag will be a little heavier than a premium bag when fully packed. I checked stitching, zippers and all the pockets. The stitching wasn’t as good as the premium brand but, it was still a well-built bag that should last if I didn’t over stuff it. After some research we realized they make backpacks designed for women, men and unisex. We are ThriftyKing LLC and we offer the best prices on the internet. Our company started in the fall of 2022 when our founders Brittney & D’Andre Ruth decided it was time to do something great, not only for their child but for you as well. Make sure to let a friend or family member know what you’re doing and where you’re going. Tell someone how many days you’ll be gone and approximately where you think you’ll stay each night. Physically check in by filling out a backpacking card at dedicated trailheads. Also, learn the seven principles of “Leave No Trace” to keep the backcountry beautiful. This hydration compatible backpack has a connection for a water bladder built in to the design. It also includes loops to hang your trekking poles when not in use. In the main pocket I keep my camera bag and jacket andother clothing for layering (for colder hiking days). This pouch could also be used to hold a small notebook computer but there’s isn’t any protection.
