Backpacking Packs

Arc'teryx Arrakis 65 Backpack:
Voted Most Waterproof- Backpacker Magazine's Gear of the Year Awards 2009
The ultimate in crossover versatility, the Arcteryx Arrakis 65 Backpack delivers year-round water resistant performance, built with 420ACT seam sealed construction and a unique RollTop closure system that allows for compression of the pack for a smaller load and 10 expandable liters of space when longer trips call for additional gear.

Built with a MonoFrame backpanel support system and a pivoting load transfer disc, the Arrakis enables you to carry a heavy load in comfort whether you are on a backcountry ski trip, multi-day backpacking excursion or a climbing expedition. A customizable Arcteryx Lash Ladder system accommodates ropes, camping gear, skis, or snowboard, and an external probe pocket allows for easy access to safety equipment in case of an emergency.

With pack access points including a full-length side zipper and large kangaroo pocket, you can locate your jacket when you break for lunch and keep your necessities handy without tearing open your whole pack.
