Hiking backpacks
Hiking. There's no greater sense of freedom and adventure. When everything you depend on for survival is strapped to your back, the thrill of living takes on new meaning. There's just something special about a worn, comfortable hiking backpack. It's something you never want to give away, throw out, or sell on eBay.
With the myriad of backpack styles available on the market, it can be tough to know which one is right for you - and for which occasion. Time was, outdoor trekkers would buy big, 7500 cubic inch internal frame backpacks and stuff 85 pounds of gear inside. These days the wise and experienced are trending toward packs no larger than 5500ci and aren't even filling those to the brim.
Some of this downsizing has to do with the fact that sleeping bags, tents, clothing, and other hiking gear are becoming lighter in weight - which is a good thing. But some of this transition owes to the fact that people are just learning to get by on less in the great out-of-doors.
Whether you're a veteran backcountry hiker or a weekend warrior wannabe, there's a hiking backpack just right for your needs - and your budget. This site is all about helping you pick the right backpack for your needs. So please, take the time to wander through this website and learn all you can about hiking backpacks before making any purchasing decisions. It could save you a great deal of money and headaches.
