A long-trail pack that fits all you need, customizes to your body, and cushions the long over the long haul.

When a day, a weekend, or even a week isn't enough time on the trail, load up the extendable 80-liter ALPS Mountaineering Red Tail Backpack and remove yourself from civilization until you fill the void with a adult-sized dose of wilderness. Not for mere weekend getaways, this six-pound pack outfits the month-long treks you plan for weeks and then quit your job to complete start to finish. The top spindrift collar extends to provide more than 80 liters of space, but since its dual-density shoulder harness adjusts to fit your exact torso size you can be sure that all that weight doesn't crumple you in the first five miles.

Details

  • 'Webbing Ladder' adjustable harness easily moves (without tools) to custom fit your torso
  • Dual-density shoulder harness feature SoftEdge straps, load lifters, and a sternum strap that cushion and properly angle the load without digging into your exposed skin
  • Triple-density modular waist belt, anti-sways straps, and a contoured lumbar pad with a ToughGrip patch help channel the heavy load to your legs
  • Dual aluminum stays anchor the weight and prevent movement while the Air Channel Mesh Pads on the back panel provide ventilation during summer treks
  • Top-accessed main compartment features an expandable top spindrift collar, drawcord, and 'Over the Top' compression strap to allow over packing, and it detaches for use as a lumbar pack
  • Bottom-accessed sleeping bag compartment and internal zip-out horizontal divider enable easy gear organization and retrieval
  • Six-pound pack features all the comfortable essentials needed to carry 80+ liters of foot, water, clothing, and gear for a week or more in the wild
  • Front pocket detaches for use as a sling-style day pack for shorter excursions to hidden waterfalls or hot springs
  • Nylon ripstop and a 1000D nylon bottom fabric provide the durability you need for the most rugged treks through the mountains
  • Included rain cover keeps the rain from getting into your pack and soaking your clean clothes and freeze-dried food
  • Hydration sleeve and port (bladder sold separately) let you get to your water while on the move
  • Top lid pocket holds a map and snacks, front kangaroo pocket holds a wet layer, front zip pocket holds small accessories, and two side mesh pockets hold water bottles
  • Compression straps lock down the load and attach extra gear while trekking pole/ice axe loops hold your tools when not in use
  • Top and bottom loops provide attachment points for securing even more gear when hiking the AT or Pacific Crest Trail
  • Waist belt fits 26-40in waists, but small (22-26in) and extra-large (40in+) waist belts are available (sold separately)
