Description of Osprey Packs: Atmos 65 Backpack

Expanding on the success of their Atmos 50 backpack, recipient of a 2005 Outside magazine Gear of the Year Award, Osprey recently introduced the larger capacity Atmos 65 backpack. To handle the bigger loads associated with gear intensive glacier climbs and winter camping trips, both the aluminum stays and hipbelt have been beefed-up for better load transfer and comfort. The 3D tensioned, breathable mesh backpanel offers superb airflow through the back contact zone, making the adventure seeker less prone to overheating. The Osprey Atmos 65 backpack carries loads of up to 35 lbs. (15.86 kgs.) with ease, and with an assortment of convenient pockets and straps, keeping all this gear organized is a cinch. Although the pack is classified as a top loader, the main compartment is also accessible through a zippered opening in the left front pocket.

A great organizer bag The tall version really fits my 6' 2" frame well, hip belts snug down securely and the belt pockets take a small a camera, sunscreen, lip balm and a half pound bag of trail mix. The option for hydration bladder inside or outside (in mesh area) works well and increases the internal volume, which is limited for rigid objects due to the curved suspension system. Don't expect to get any size bear proof container inside this bag. I used it all winter, with snowshoes, ice ax and crampons strapped to the outside and with loads up to 29lbs the bag and I traveled comfortably up 6000 foot peaks on 8 hour, 12 mile hikes. The front shovel pocket is roomy enough for wet rain gear and the top pocket ideal for gear that is needed quickly, like goggles, shell mitts and headgear. The compression straps and front pockets allow smaller loads to be carried on day trips without the bag appearing oversize for your summer day hike, and at 3lbs 12 oz its no burden to take it along. A very robust bag that shows no signs of wear and tear after squeezing past countless spruce trees bushwhacking in New Hampshire.
