Thread: Exped lightning

I like mine. If on the tops I dont take another pack, but in the bush I still take my pikau, hate the high profile packs when trying to manouver through supplejack ect. Havnt given mine a thrashing, but its done a few trips and still looks brand new. Its pretty comfy to, provided you pack it right. The light ripstop material like most thin materials can be prone to abrasion, but is very hard to tear. If it gets a hole just patch with tenacios tape, or good duct tape and carry on.

Just checked and mine is "The North Face Verto 26" Summit series. Not the 35.
I got it from the Queenstown store and note that they are not shown on their website ... but they weren't when I got mine either ... so email or phone them to check if thats the way you want too go.

This is the one i want when it comes on sale next Exped Backcountry 65L Tramping Pack - Bivouac Online Store
