Hiking Downriver

The Big Agnes Sweetwater UL 28L Backpack is an ultralight daypack that’s ideal for easy-going hikes downriver and not-so-easy-going fastpacking trips upstream. This 28L option hosts the smallest volume out of the collection of ultralight Sweetwater backpacks from Big Agnes. Inspired by running vests, the shoulder straps and Open Range hip belt ensure bounce-free stability and support. The shoulder straps, hip belt, and even the back are all adjustable to ensure a solid fit for all body types. All the exterior pockets are stretch-mesh so you can stash and go in the middle of the trail without holding up the rest of the group.

Features

  • Ultralight daypack designed for weekend hikes, daily commutes, and even a few fastpacking trips
  • 28L capacity is the smallest backpack in the ultralight Sweetwater collection of Big Agnes backpacks
  • Running-vest-style shoulder harness connects directly to the lumbar support, stable framesheet, and Open Range hip belt for a bounce-free, well-ventilated carry
  • Load Wrangler system adjusts the torso’s length to fit most body sizes comfortably
    Top-loading main compartment with spindrift collar that helps when you’re fully packed, and side compression cords secure the compartment when you’re packing light
  • Internal water reservoir sleeve fits 3L hydration reservoirs, and it includes a routing port and hose clip for hands-free drinking
  • Removable rain cover protects your backpacking and camping gear from the alpine’s wet weather
  • Oversized stretch-mesh stash pockets on front, side, and chest straps for quick-and-easy drop-in storage
