Backpacks
Fitting a pack can be confusing, even to an experienced backpacker. You need to find the best pack for your size, shape. and camping requirements as well as your budget. We like to take our time with each customer to discuss all your needs, take the proper measurements and help you try on packs right in our shop with weight in them. Sometimes it takes several visits to the store to find exactly the right pack for you, but the rewards are great when you know you have carefully chosen a pack that you will carry on adventures for years.
After you have purchased your pack, we are always available to help you learn to pack it properly and answer any other questions you might have about using it. Happy Trails!
