The granite gear crown2 60 is a lightweight pack for lightweight loads.
I have used the granite gear crown 2 60l on 3 trips of 35 miles each to big bend np and guadalupe mountains np plus a handful of 15 mile overnighters and about 70 miles of day hikes with training loads.
This new and improved successor to the classic crown v c.
I recommend you spend a little extra and get the granite gear blaze 60.
Though it doesn t have the suspension of a more substantial pack if you already have a lightweight kit and you re looking for a pack to match this one might just be the perfect fit.
Has anybody used this pack with the bv500.
Right now the bear canister will be the heaviest item in my bag.
So as you all know a bear canister is required for hiking the jmt.
I m 6 2 and have a very fast metabolism.
Regular torso without lid.
The load bearing capacity can be surprisingly good but it depends a lot on how full the pack is.
The bear pulled out our bearvault from where it was stashed between a rock and log.
It has basic but nice features and the option to reduce weight even more.
For marginally more weight you get a pack that has nearly the same features but can comfortably carry up to 50 lbs and is a little more adjustable.
For ultralight loads the frame sheet can be removed lowering the weight to 1 7lbs.
This multi day pack is as capable as it is versatile as ultralight as it is ultra comfortable and it can be stripped down to its skivvies like a hiker at an alpine lake on a hot day that s to say it has a number of conveniently removable parts.
Thank you for your question.
While camping at badger lakes thousand island lake and island pass we had a bear visit.
Given the amount of food and crew gear you will carry on your trek the 35 lb capacity of the crown will not cut it.
Will the bearvault 500 fit in this pack.
