Six Moon Designs Traveler Backpack

The Traveler's panel loading entry gives you easy access to all your gear. A zippered top pocket provides handy storage and weather protection. A zippered mesh front pocket is great for storing clothing and other gear you want to keep handy.

Three additional exterior mesh pockets provide quick access to water, map, snacks, camera, and other gear. The heavy duty mesh used on the Traveler will withstand the punishment of bushwhacking off trail and the toughest baggage handlers.

The Traveler pack is sized to easily fit into overhead compartments on planes, yet is large enough to hold a bear canister if needed.

The unique suspension system of this incredibly light 24 ounce frameless pack, allows you to comfortably carry loads up to 35 pounds. Should you wish to carry additional weight or prefer the added rigidity of an internal frame, simply slip in the optional aluminum hoop stay to create an internal frame pack.

This allows the belt considerable latitude for waist sizes. Which belt is right for you depends upon how much padding you wish. The table below lists the various sizes of hip belts available and their recommended waist sizes.

Each of the two hip belt pockets measures 3.5" X 6" X 2" and holds 42 cubic inches of easily accessible gear. Together they add an additional 80-plus cubic inches of storage to your pack. They are sized to be large enough to carry a small digital camera, GPS, snacks, sun screen or other items that need quick access.
