Float along effortlessly on overnight or multi-day backpacking trips. A redesign for the Aurora Packs gives them a slimmer lumbar pad and a cut-out channel down the back to improve ventilation. The lid converts to a waist pack, so you can bring a few items on shorter trips. Thinner tubing for the frame saves weight while still transferring the load effectively to your hips.
