Hyperlite Mountain Gear Southwest 55L Ultralight Backpack
The Hyperlite Mountain Gear Southwest 55L Ultralight Backpack is a true performer, ready to tackle even the most rugged and demanding trails. Designed for weekend, section, or thru hikes, it adapts effortlessly to changing gear volumes. Ideal for trips with less frequent resupply points or when equipment flexibility is a must. The 55L pack can be rolled down to resemble the size of a 40L pack, but the extra volume proves invaluable when needed. Its versatility shines through in thick, vegetation-filled routes, where it can navigate up and over obstacles with ease. This backpack is for the daring adventurers who need a pack that can withstand the toughest challenges.
