This fully featured pack sets you up for a multi-day backpacking trip or a hike into the mountains to do some scrambles and peak bagging. The super comfortable suspension system can be adjusted to suit your torso length, and the hipbelt can be swapped out if you need a smaller or larger size. Once you've established your basecamp, you can zip off the side pockets to make a small daypack and remove the top lid and wear it as a waistbelt. It's an all-in-one adaptable solution that brings together popular features and design details from generations of MEC packs.
