Description: Here it is, the legendary and rare Kelty 50th Anniversary backpack. I am the original owner of this ultimate external frame backpack. I am a bit too old now to carry larger loads and have shifted to shorter excursions and ultralight equipment. This is extremely lightweight for its capacity and external frame. Burly, yet incredibly comfortable load bearing for the possible weight and capacity. Or, don't fill it to capacity, lash it down tight, and you have an amazingly stable and easy to carry external load without the weight of typical big packs. Very versatile, very well-loved and cared for. Complete with carbon fiber load lifters, two removable external pockets and removable mesh pocket / daypack. The only minor flaw in this pack is wear at the end of one of the webbing straps. Cut and melt, or leave as-is - plenty of length left. If you are looking at this, then you probably know what it is - an incredibly rare, high quality, ultimate external frame expedition pack. No tears or wear spots. Extremely clean. No smells, no funny stuff. It is in excellent condition and ready for its new owner to enjoy. I ship promptly. Very lightweight, with a sleek design similar to internal frames but with the carrying capacity and load support found on most external frame packsShaving weight is the hidden frame--a small diameter, high alloy tube with a unique hourglass shape for unhindered motionLevitator™ carbon fiber device transfers weight from pack to hipbelt for increased support with uniform belt pressure and correct angleContoured waistbelt, anatomically curved shoulder straps, load-lifter straps and sternum strap are fully adjustable for the perfect torso and hip fitSuspension features BROCK™ 3D air-circulating foam, wicking spacer-mesh and a sprung mesh band panel for an unbelievable cooling effectNo-hole, full-strength packbag attachment eliminates use of clevis pins for weight saving plus no snagging and jinglingTwo large (500 cu. in. each) side pockets are perfect for longer hauls and are removable to lighten the load on short weekend tripsLid features a large top pocket, a valuables pocket underneath flap and a map pocket directly behind head that allows access while walkingFront mesh wet pouch has a bungee compression system and is ideal for carrying wet items; remove and webbing straps allow use as a daypackBig, deep mesh water bottle side pocket, two ice axe loops and three daisy chains allow attaching and lashing of bulky, quick-access gearSleeping bag hatch at bottom of pack allows access to lower end of pack without the use of heavy zippersMain packbag is made of nylon microfiber and 215-denier Spectra® Hardline® fabric with a tough 500-denier Cordura® nylon bottomStripped down average weight is 4 lbs. 11 oz.; complete pack average weight is 6 lbs. 11 oz.
