Backcountry Access Stash Alp40 Backpack - 2440cu in

Item #BCA0072 | 8 in Stock
2 Star Rating

Light duty and can't take a beating

By Ranked #342 - Winter Packs March 11, 2009

At first I thought this pack was great; light, good hydration system, good pockets, good amount of space. But after a year it is destroyed. The cheapo zipper pullies have all ripped off (one on the first day of use) and there are now numerous holes in the light yet delicate fabric. Perhaps the owner should not take it rock climbing in the summer.....but I'm a bit disappointed in the durability after one year. Perhaps not a good value for the price.
