Jansport loaded the external frame Carson Backpack with some of their most popular internal frame features. In many ways this large pack looks and operates like an internal, but its easy-to-pack, easy-to-adjust design and excellent weight transfer are evidence of its external roots. As serious backpackers know, nothing handles heavy loads like an external-frame pack. The Carson's adjustable aluminum frame system fits 16- to 21-inch torso lengths. This weeklong pack has both top and panel access, so it extends for overloading and helps you reach your gear quickly. Dual water bottle pockets keep you hydrated, and dual daisy chains let you clip on some extra gear.
Bottom Line: Experience the advantages of both external- and internal-frame packs with the Jansport Carson Backpack.

The pack is everything I had hoped it would be. I adjusted the pack so most of the load is carried on my hips and it's real nice to carry. I herd someone complained about it being noisy. If you snug all the straps an properly fit it to your body you can go into stealth mode. Mine makes no noise at all. It's like any other piece of gear, you need to find out what makes it tick to get the most out of it
Change me.
