Dear members,

I am doing the WHR in September 2025 and looking for backpack recommendations for a 35-38 liter pack weighing in the 3 lb or under range. I’m 5’4”/120 lbs. Tried the Osprey Eja, but couldn’t get it to fit right even with expert help. Any suggestions for other favorite packs?

So many options. As you discovered, very individual, kind of like shoes. Since you are a BPL member, here’s something to get you started: https://backpackinglight.com/lightweight-ultralight-backpacks-backpacking/

I am about your size and carry a Gossamer Gear Mariposa 60 size small with small hip belt.
