P is for Packing

P is for Packing

Do you want to go to  Europe?  Or go backpacking? Well you better get a backpack to go.

No Bob. It needs to have an internal/external frame to distribute the weight like this.
Early 1990s JanSport D-3
This pack distributes the weight on your hip area more than shoulder area it is helpful because all of the weight is not just to your .  Also for a hike you may need extra water if you do you should get a water pack.  You should get your pack at Cabelas or R.E.I and fitted there or if people you know can bles and get it fitted there or if someone you know can.  The measure of packs space is in liters like 30,40,49 etc.

  1. Jake,
    Thanks for the information about packing. I never knew that the weight could be distributed to the hips instead of the shoulders. That would be helpful to carry more weight. Where is your favorite place to go backpacking?
