The GoLite Quest pack is ideal for the fleet-footed backpacker, adventure traveler and thru-hiker. It's built with Tier 1 recycled fabric and offers superior comfort and solid functionality.
- Pack body is made with 50% Tier 1 recycled material that performs on par with virgin, petroleum-produced materials and can be recycled over and over
- The Tier 1 recycling process achieves a 70% reduction in energy use and CO2 emissions for recycled nylon and 80% reduction for recycled polyester
- Backpacker April '10 declares how tough Tier 1 is: "If there's a difference between the recycled fabric and the virgin nylon used in previous years, we couldn't tell."
- Quest pack offers an impressive weight-to-volume ratio with a pack weight of just over 3 lbs. and over 70 liters in volume
- Features contoured, padded shoulder straps, sternum strap with whistle buckle, and an air-channel back panel that hugs the back
- High-void mesh on back panel and shoulder straps moves moisture quickly and promotes rapid drying
- Adjustable load-lifter straps, top compression strap and size-specific, anatomically molded hipbelt stabilize the load; 2 gusseted pockets on hipbelt carry small essentials
- Suspension system mimics the spine with an S-contoured back panel; HDPE framesheet with 2 adjustable aluminum stays offer stability and load-bearing capacity
- ComPACKtor™ system reduces pack volume by connecting the fixed compression anchor clips on the bottom of pack, allowing you to go from peak bagger to day-tripper
- Top-loading main compartment holds food, clothing, sleeping bag and more; removable top lid allows you to trim pack weight
- Large front pocket allows you to stow often-accessed items such as rain jacket, water filter and energy bars
- Side compression straps with quick-release buckles stabilize large and small loads; straps can clip to opposite side for carrying a snowboard, snowshoes or other winter gear
- Internal stretch-woven sleeve holds a 3-liter hydration reservoir (sold separately); twin exit ports for drinking tube allow hands-free drinking on the trail
- 2 side stretch pockets keep water bottles and trekking poles within easy reach; twin ice axe loops and handle straps accomodate additional gear
- Adjustable sternum strap features a safety whistle
- GoLite Quest pack is constructed with recycled ripstop nylon for durability and light weight
