With eldest sons Nike camp only a month away we went looking for a 65 l back pack for him. For this 3 day hike he will need to carry everything he needs to a maximum of 1/4 of his weight. He currently is 40 kilos.
So his Scout leader met us at the shop and fitted him and talked us through the important elements.
Adjustable size so it will do for a few years
Hip pads so the bag rests on his hips NOT his shoulders
Has a rain cover that he uses ALL the time which keeps his pack clean and dry
65l in size
The cost of the bag was $160 however scouts get 10% discount at this store. Our unit has booked a 20% discount night so the manager said that she would honor the 20% discount if we bought it today, which we did.
