Hyperlite Mountain Gear 3400 Junction Backpack
The benefits of ultralight outdoor gear are many, but in no activity are they more apparent than in hiking and backpacking. When you’re carrying every ounce on your back, making sure you have the lightest gear possible is only going to add to your enjoyment. One of the biggest decisions to make is what pack to carry everything in, but with the 3400 Junction Backpack from Hyperlite Mountain Gear, that decision is easy. The brand takes an intentional approach to creating products and focuses on having less and doing more. The result is a two-pound, 55L pack constructed from high-quality, lightweight material that is efficient at keeping you comfortable and your gear dry and safe. The 3400 Junction is the perfect pack for any trail, anywhere. To learn more about how it can help you better enjoy the outdoors this summer, read on below.
Weatherproof
The main body of the pack is built with 100 percent waterproof and ultra-lightweight DCH50 & DCH150, allowing you to trek on even during mother nature’s worst. And after the sun comes out, stash your wet gear in the mesh outer pocket and let it dry easily so you can keep moving.
Stay Safe on the Trail
Safety is front of mind when exploring a new trail. Not only do the Hardline with Dyneema© side pockets protect your gear in abrasive environments, but they also keep it hidden when you’re dipping in and out of trail towns along your route. You will have peace of mind knowing your valuables are safe and secure during your pit stops.
Versatile
If you’re looking for a backpack that will perform on a day trip, section or thru-hike, the 3400 Junction is the pick. With extra volume for storage, you’ll have the freedom to tackle hikes with less frequent resupply points. On days when the extra volume isn’t necessary, the 3400 conveniently rolls down to a smaller size (similar to that of Hyperlite Mountain Gear’s 2400 pack) making it comfortable no matter how much, or how little, you’re carrying.
