Why We Like The Glacier 71L Backpack
Whether we're heading to the Wind River Range for a week or simply hopping off the bus in Denali National Park for a couple nights in the wilderness, the Mystery Ranch Glacier 71L Backpack always comes with us to get the job done. This durable pack offers ample space for multi-day missions, and its classic style is right at home on any trail.
The Glacier features the new lightweight Astral Frame, which draws on Mystery Ranch's expertise in designing packs for the military, keeping your fully-loaded pack supported and stable when you're tackling daunting terrain. Don't worry about chilly nights because the Speedzip compartment accommodates the warmest, bulkiest sleeping bags. Plus, the lid detaches for use as a day pack on quick trips from basecamp—the back yoke can be detached from the main pack and transferred to the daypack for comfortable carry.

I have/had a Glacier but it was a little small so my girlfriend has it. I bet it is bear proof. The first thing I did was waterproof it. It carries heavy loads very comfortabley. I am 60 years old and 140 pounds. It seems a bit weird to carry a heavy pack but the feel is how well its made to haul equipment and this is comfortable, a bit hot but then again I live in Alaska, and super sturdy and very ajustable. The hip belt is amply padded and that is where you need to be carrying your load. Its easy to attatch my first aid pack to the left side of my hip belt and the bear spray (in a Mystery Ranch holster) on my right side. Mystery Ranch is worth your attention if you are not a gram weanie.
