Backpacks
Choose your backpack wisely and well. Determine the kind of trip and its needs and make sure the pack is comfortable. You don’t want your trip to be cut short because of an uncomfortable backpack.
Backpacks may also feature an internal or external frame. Each has its advantages, depending on the trip and your skill level. Before taking a backpack on a trip, test it at home to make sure the weight is distributed properly on your body.
