Terraframe 3-Zip 50L Backpack

Great pack!

Bought this pack several months ago and have been very impressed with the fit and function. Hauls loads easily and does a great job with packing additional gear in the load shelf. Great pack

Another awesome pack!

Bought this to compliment my scree for longer trips! Once again, another great product from Mystery Ranch!! Can’t wait for more opportunities to use this wonderful pack!

Seems like a very well built bag!

I just had a chance to get it out on the trail for the first time. Construction quality and versatility are great. I'm looking forward to alot of time spent with this bag! Thanks mystery ranch team, Kannon

Adjustable, comfortable, perfect amount of space. I love this bag!

This is a great backpacking bag. Very durable and wears very comfortably. I plan on using it for backcountry camping and elk hunting. I should have no problem packing in 4 to 5 days worth of gear and packing out any animals I harvest. I like how the bag is designed, simple yet very functional and with it's carry capacity there are no limits on what you can pack.

Great pack

This pack is well built and really comfortable. With the three zip system, it's easy to get in and out of the entire pack, instead of just having the top opening. The waist belt and shoulder straps have really thick padding and is one of the best fitting packs i've ever had. The ability to separate the pack from the frame for extra carry capacity is really nice to have. This is my favorite pack and will get lots of use.

Terraframe 3-zip 50

I've had 3 hikes with this pack (8, 5, and 4miles) loaded less than 20lbs. I did have 2 full nalgene silos in the pockets. Had some initial adjustments to make due to hip soreness. Once adjusted carry was great. Have a 14 miler coming up, planning 25-30 lb load. I have no concerns. I may try out the overload feature on that hike.

Great pack!

I bought this for 3 day section hikes. I have a lot of "ultralight gear" but dislike super lightweight packs. The 50L comes in around 5lbs and is super comfortable once you figure out how to adjust it. I used it once in a late season hike, carrying heavier loads than i normally would, and it remained super comfortable. The hipbelt rules. Im a 34" waist and have room for 2 good sized molle pouches on each side. The side pockets are great for water bottles. I love the 3 zip. It makes it easy to get stuff from the bottom of the bag.. Only cons are - it has no drag handle. I don't like grabbing it by the top of the carbon frame. I emailed mystery ranch, they assured me it was safe to do so. But I personally dont feel comfortable doing it. The bag isnt expandable, 50L is 50L, it felt smaller once i started filling it. Once its full theres no roll top closure or anything you have to get it to zip. I was used to overstuffing USGI molle rucksacks. There's lots of webbing on the pack but it felt limited. Maybe I've just got to play around and figure it out. The vertical rows feel less useful, i wish it had more horizontal webbing. Its an expensive pack, i dont know how I feel about modifying it Overall its a great pack. It does what I need and my complaints are minimal. Im working on modifying a MR pack lid from one of the terraframe hunting packs to fit this pack. It'll be nice for those cold weather hikes where i need just a little extra space for clothing.

Great rack.

The pack has been great so far without fully loading up. Looking forward to multi day hikes.

Pack Is Amazing, Quality a little dissappointing

I have used this pack for two years now for backpacking a few times and 2 elk seasons here in Montana. Love the pack. It rides well, very adaptable to different tasks, have yet to run into any volume issues, and can handle heavy loads. Only downside is some of the quality. Had a buckle break on the bottom that was holding my sleeping bag while I was hiking last year. I am not sure how to replace it since the tab securing it is a sewn loop. Then one of the side pockets has torn open. Not sure how it happened since I have only had a fly rod in that pocket. Would love to give this pack a 5 star, but for the cost, the quality is lacking.
