Mountain Hardwear Intention 75 Backpacking Backpack:
Voted Best Big-Load Comfort- Backpacker Magazine's Gear of the Year Awards 2009
The comfort-oriented Intention is designed for large loads and long days on the trail. Â The secret to the packs suspension is our custom-shapeable Fit-Lock hipbelt, which wraps around the framesheet to draw the load tight, providing excellent balance and load transfer. Â Both the hipbelt and shoulder straps have soft edges and smooth surfaces to remain comfortable all day. Â The bag design is strong on versatility, with a front compression pocket that converts to a daypack, a removable top lid, side zip access to the main compartment, and water bottle pockets you can actually reach while wearing the pack.
