High Sierra Karadon 65L

The most renowned brands have nothing on this 65L backpack from High Sierra. A combination of useful volume, a metal-reinforced frame system and right-sized hipbelt do the shrewd owner proud. The same for the curved shoulder straps complete with an 8”-travel sliding sternum strap. Generous pull loops, high abrasion resistance and plenty of attachment points contribute to an outstanding value. During more extreme climbs and hop-scotch descents on sharp talus, High Sierra Karadon hung with us through fast-paced overnight outings. There’s nothing here to make you reconsider your purchase. The same for the $50-$100 left in your pocket for fuel, beer and trail snacks.
