REI Crestrail 51

This is a 51 liter internal frame pack weighing 3 lb. 15oz and in my opinion would be best used for 0-3 day hikes.

The Crestrail is super comfortable and offers a lot of storage(8 pockets) with tons of accessibility.

I love that it has quick stays for trekking poles and has pockets on the hip belt for your compass, flashlight, snacks or whatever you need to keep handy! The chest strap even has a built in safety whistle.

If you are in the market for a new pack definitely check this one out! Normally $160 on sale for $79

I am sure this pack will be with me for years of adventure.

  • Sculpted FreeFlow back panel has multiple peaks and valleys to reduce contact areas and increase ventilation; soft foam conforms to your back for a stable fit
  • ActivMotion® hipbelt pivots to follow the natural motion of your hips, helping keep the pack balanced and stable on your back when hiking on uneven terrain
  • Hipbelt webbing tightens with a forward pull for easy adjustment; 2 zippered pockets provide handy access to snacks
  • Tubular aluminum perimeter frame is lighter weight than HDPE/stay framesheets; it transfers weight to hips and stabilizes the pack, helping prevent unwanted side-to-side sway
  • Top-loading main compartment also features a large zippered opening to the bottom for easy access
  • Large front pocket with double-zipper access, stretch stash pocket and lightweight lash points provide storage and organization for often-used gear and clothing
  • Side bottle-locking pockets secure bottles or other items, helping prevent them from falling out when bushwhacking or taking your pack off
  • Quick Clip ice axe attachments are strategically positioned to avoid interference with pockets and access zippers
  • Over-the-top and dual side compression straps pull the load close to your back, minimize bulk and provide external attachment points for gear
  • Floating top lid extends, allowing the pack to handle large loads
  • Ripstop nylon fabric resists abrasion and tears; durable water resistant finish repels moisture
  • Water-repellent zippers help keep your contents dry and eliminate the need for fabric zipper flaps
  • The REI Crestrail 48 pack features a hydration-ready design that allows your reservoir's drink tube to be routed over either shoulder (reservoir not included)
