Title: Hiking pack?
Post by: elkhunter00 on April 08, 2014, 12:11:22 AM: Any suggestions for just a hiking/camping pack? I'm thinking between 40 and 60 liters.
Thanks

Some of the Osprey are nice but watch the ones contoured to allow for ventilation as that comprimises room and ability to load gear into the pack.
