A minimalist exterior belies the progression-packed nature of this 23-liter day-trekker. When you’re sweating it out on a steep uphill, your back will stay cool and dry thanks the Backdraft™ back panel—featuring directional foam conduits that allow hot air to rise and be replaced by cooler air. The Crescent Peak’s innovative Techlite™ straps are comprised of an insanely strong, lightweight compound molded around super-breathing mesh inserts, with a healthy helping of cushioning for comfort. The exterior features water-shedding Omni-Shield, as well as an integrated rain fly for when serious rainstorms descend. Water bottle pockets combine with 3-liter-hydration-unit compatibility to keep you hydrated, the sternum strap helps shoulder heavy loads.
