Kelty Tongass Backpack:
New for 2008! The small, sleek Kelty Tongass Backpack is perfect for adventurers who want a well-organized pack that won't slow them down. The Real Tree AP Green camouflage pattern offers maximum concealment and convenient features make the Tongass a standout backcountry performer. Padded adjustable shoulder straps, a sternum strap and a padded waistbelt ensure that the Tongass provides support and comfort. The Tongass weighs just 2.5 pounds and you can reduce weight even further by removing a large front organizer pocket. Panel access provides convenient access to the 1100 cubic inch interior of the Tongass. In addition to the removable front pocket, the Tongass has a fleece-lined optics pocket. Side compression straps allow you to cinch down the Tongass, so that all of its contents remain in place while you're on the move. These straps also serve double duty as gear lash points. A small zippered pocket on the waistbelt offers yet another place to carry a compass, snack or valuables. Integrated clips on the Tongass's shoulder straps allow you to keep binoculars close at hand. An integrated hide-away gun or bow carry system frees up your hands for scrambling over demanding terrain. Lower side pockets are designed to carry water bottles and a lined pocket and dual exit ports make the Tongass hydration compatible. A pull-out blaze orange rain cover offers extra protection against the elements and increases your visibility to others in the backcountry. The Kelty Tongass's Real Tree AP Green camouflage whisper cloth material cuts down on sound and provides maximum concealment while in the woods.
