Hyperlite Mountain Gear Southwest 70L Backpack White, S

"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""The Southwest 70L is my go-to for multi-day treks when I need to carry everything but still move fast. The Dyneema construction is incredibly tough and waterproof, so I never worry about weather or abrasion. Even fully loaded, the suspension system distributes weight comfortably, and I love how simple yet functional the layout is—no unnecessary extras, just pure backcountry efficiency."" When the mountains demand both endurance and efficiency, we load up the Hyperlite Mountain Gear Southwest 70L Backpack. Purpose-built for thru-hikes, long expeditions, and gear-heavy backcountry missions, this ultralight pack combines the unmatched durability and weather resistance of Dyneema fabric with a minimalist, dialed design. Its 70-liter capacity holds everything we need for weeks on the trail, while the internal framesheet and removable aluminum stays provide customizable structure and support without adding weight. The roll-top closure seals out moisture and adapts to changing loads, while three large external pockets keep wet gear or layers easily accessible. Padded shoulder straps and a supportive hip belt make heavy loads feel manageable over long days, and the integrated hydration sleeve ensures we stay fueled and hydrated through tough climbs. Designed to thrive in harsh alpine and desert environments alike, the Southwest 70L stands as the ultimate expression of simplicity, strength, and long-haul reliability."
