Apex Mountaineering

They call that color "Don't shoot me Orange", but yikes. If it's so ugly you need to convince someone not to shoot you…

Also, I like this insufficiently qualified sentence:

"Ultralight hikers can achieve a 5 to 10 pound base weight by removing unnecessary hip straps."

Going out on a limb here, but I don't think it's just the straps.

Someone must really like highlighters.

Kidding aside, I'm curious about them. Kind of looks like a quickstep in design and function.

If the colors weren't so crazy, I think the $79.00 and $89.00 packs would be great. The design is like many other packs out there for sure, but the prices seem pretty good. As long as they're of good quality, seems like a good deal minus the colors.

Added: the weights are actually pretty good as well considering the materials. But then again, the weights are without hipbelts and frames. My 2015 Gorilla is around 16 oz without the frame or hipbelt.

These may be great little packs for fathers (or mothers) to buy they're young (or older) daughters (or sons). Add a colorful EE kids quilt and they'd be begging to go hiking with they're dad (or mom)! :^)

Geez,

That pack looks like it was sewn from stuff in a teenage girl's underwear drawer:)

Or from a Boy George video. Very MTV.

> the $79.00 and $89.00 packs would be great.
At that price, they can have only one source.

Cheers

Wisconsin? ;^)
