Nature Calls Backpacking

Kelty Long Trail External Frame Backpack Review


Classic external frame backpack offers heavy load hauling capability, convenient access points and fit adjustability. Ample, organized storage for gear with four side pockets, one flap pocket and one front pocket in addition to main compartment. EVA foam-padded shoulder straps with sternum strap and padded hipbelt for load-carrying comfort. Mesh back-band enhances ventilation during warm-weather hikes and intense activity. H-frame is constructed of aircraft-quality aluminum alloy and adjusts by moving hipbelt down to avoid top-heavy loads. Rugged 420-denier nylon packcloth stands up to years of hard use.
