Teton Outfitter 4600 Ultralight Internal Frame High-Performance Backpack for Hiking, Camping, Travel, and Outdoor Activities; 75L, Blue

I’ve had this backpack for a few months now and I love it! As someone just getting started in backpacking, I was looking for the best quality I could get without breaking the bank. This pack has exceeded my expectations. First off, I have several Teton Sports products and love them! I have their Trailhead Ultralight sleeping bag (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B007JTLKCC/) and it fits perfectly in the Hiker 3700 sleeping bag compartment without needing any additional compression straps. The main compartment is surprisingly large. I can pack three days of food, stove, pot, fuel, extra clothes and a sleeping pillow (Teton Sports ComfortLite) with room to spare. The pouch on top is perfect for items you use more often or when taking a quick break (i.e. first aid kid, snacks, maps, etc.). The pouch on the waist belt is great for stuff you need without taking the pack off (compass, camera & phone).A few additional details that may help people:1.) I’m 6’3” and 220 lbs. I think I’m pushing the limit on the height limit for this bag. It’s still comfortable when wearing but I really need another inch or so for an absolute perfect fit. If you’re over 6’ tall, make sure you measure your torso length. My torso is 22” and I’m right at the limit (maybe a little over).2.) The description on Amazon states this pack will hold a 2.5L hydration bladder but Teton Sports says it will handle 3.0L on their website. After receiving a VERY quick and courteous response from Teton Sports, I ordered the 3.0L Platypus Big Zip (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001KZGYLS/) taking their word on it. Not only does the 3.0L fit with a Sawyer inline filter (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0034VR8ES/) attached, but there’s room to spare.3.) The description says this pack is good for a 3 or 4 day outing which is probably accurate for a newbie like me. I think you could probably get enough supplies for a longer outing if you know what you’re doing.4.) I have the Teton Sports XXL self-inflating sleeping pad (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B009L1MF7A/) which easily straps on the outside of this pack and you hardly know it’s there. I plan on getting the regular size pad once I start doing more extended hikes where size and weight starts to make a real difference.All in all, this is a fantastic backpack. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for good quality and many features at an affordable price.

Wow! Where do I begin on this pack. GREAT quality! GREAT price! GREAT features!This is my second backpacking pack I've had. And I don't think I'll ever buy another one. If this were to break I'd buy this same one again.This pack is one of the few backpacks I've researched that are ultralight and have pockets on exterior of the pack. Man that was a big seller for me. I wanted a pack that had exterior pockets and was a ultralight pack. This is the one pack I found I really liked.I picked this pack up for $100. MSRP is like $189-$200. So WOW! Great deal. Definitely recommend this pack.There are way to many excellent features it's hard to pick just a few to talk about.But I really like the exterior pockets for an ultralight pack. Most ultralight packs are just a big 55l-65l stuff sack. This one is so much more. Also on the front of the pack. There are cross member buckles. Once you undo those it kinda butterfly opens up. Along the inside of that flap is a zipper that runs the length of the pack and alows super easy access to contents inside bag. This is super handy as it is always hard to have to open your pack and dig to the bottom to get that one item you need. (Toilet paper,ect. ) So this side zipper makes life super easy with this pack. And it is covered by the flap so protected from rain and dust. Also tons of gear attachment loops, D rings, Daisy chain bungie, and straps. (Have to be careful not to over pack this pack as it has room for more than you need.) Last thing is the rainfly/ rain shield cover at bottom of the bag. Man that is super nice. Nothing ruins you hiking/camping trip like a downpour and wet gear. This rain cover is great. It is attached in a compartment at bottom of the bag. Just undo the very strong velco and pull it out and it's attached so you will never loose it. Also I like that is is attached so once it's done raining you can leave it out to dry as you continue you journey/trip. Then pack it back up.I would recommend this pack to everyone. It is adjustable. So can fit anyone who will be using it. Small kids this pack I think might be too big. Maybe just keep it packed light for kids and you would be okay. Also it's comfy. But I need to test it out longer to get a better feel for it. I am 6ft 2in. And 160lbs soaking wet lol. But this pack fits great for me. That's another plus.I hope this review helps. I have not seen many reviews for this bag on YouTube. So maybe I will post one in the future.Thanks and hope this helps you get a better idea of this pack! 🤙
