Best Hiking Backpack?
Christian
I will be going on a 50 mile hike over the course of 5 days in about a month and I am looking for a good backpack. I really don't have a lot of money to blow on this so I am looking for a real bargain. I am thinking of the Jansport Klamath 75 which I could get for about $120, the High Sierra Explorer 55 which I could get for about $70, and the Jansport Big Bear 82 Internal Backpack - 2010 Model which I could get for about $68. I am currently leaning towards one of the cheaper two but since I have really looked at the third I threw it in as well. I am looking for some good evidence as to why one might be better and preferably personal experience as well. If you have other recommendations in this price range, that would be great as well. Although I would love to spend $300+ on a pack I really can't justify much more than 100 right now. Any help would be great. Thanks!
Answer
i looked at reviews of the three packs you listed.
the explorer is too heavy. 5 pounds plus.
jansport has been making packs for years. i used to have an old frame pack of theirs back in the late 70's. can't say that high sierra is a name i have seen in the higher end packs.
i know the klamath costs the most but it is the best of the three. its only 3 lb. 14 oz. and it's a real good size. it has a separate sleeping bag compartment, more pockets and you can use it on overnighters and week long trips. besides i like 4600 cu in packs. it kind of gives you a limit on how much stuff you can take. to me it's a clean looking pack.
the big bear just a bit heavier and it only has one compartment, but if money is really an issue then this would be number 2.
pick a jansport and you will carry that pack for years.
