Material:Polyester. YKK Zipper and YKK BuckleThe main compartment is the size of the whole backpack. Mine is 20"h x 12"w x 4.5" deep.Your Laptop(big enough for a 17"laptop).There is a compartment that can be used for a bladder and a holding place for the tube but no specific bladder space.The size is perfect and meets the personal carry on for airlines such as frontier so you can load these down and not pay for a checked bag.Includes an adjustable hip belt on this bag that fits waist sizes 25–55 inches,but the belly strap is not removable.An adjustable sternum strap, breathable molded foam back panel, and S-shaped shoulder straps ensure you can properly carry the weight of your gear.This backpack is impressively practical for shorter treks,there's a wide color selection to fit any hiker's style.If your torso is longer than 52 centimeters, then Mountaintop recommends you seek a different pack.
Mountaintop 40 liter pretty good for 40 bucks, however I'm upgrading again soon. This one is great and I've had it for about two years now with no sign of wear and tear but I wish I had gone with a 50 or 60 liter bag as the 40 really strains for space on a week long trip. Its perfect for about three days however and that's usually what I do anyway. here's some pics of mine the thing I was most concerned about was support and this does a decent enough job, I'd say 7/10. It has molded foam support which is good but a external frame style seems better to me ( however that's a opinionated subject ) id reccamend going ahead and getting either this one or a larger Teton, or the larger version of mine if your planning on staying out for more than 5 days or so. Less than that and I'd highly recommend mine :)
Here ya go!
Hey all. Relatively new to the ultralight scene, but have been trying to go lighter weight over the last few years. Will probably still be a while before I'm true ultralight (6lbs for the big 4?), but my current plan would have me at 7-7.5 lbs for the big 4. Was curious about your input / any suggestions for improvements:
Overall, $350/7.4 lbs for the big 4. I definitely know there's room for improvement and I will probably be replacing things as I can afford it. The most obvious place for improvement is the bag, but I'd actually bought one for my wife as a temporary hiking bag for our first hike-in camp together but we ended up both really liking it. It's comfortable and for $27 it was hard to pass up, especially as it has all the compartments I like in a hiking bag (i.e. access to the bottom section for the sleeping bag). Welcome to criticisms and suggestions.
