- how to choose backpacks
The mountaineering bag is one of the most important hiking pieces. It is recommended to choose a lightweight backpack.
First of all, the design of the backpack, shoulder strap and waist belt should conform to the body structure and achieve a comfortable state;
Secondly, the choice of fabric for backpack can choose lightweight fabrics such as nylon. If it is sturdy, waterproof and wear-resistant, you can choose CORDURA.
Finally, in terms of functions, there should be side bags on both sides of the backpack for easy placement of water bottles and trekking poles to increase the volume of the backpack,and the design can dry out something wet.The waist bag on the belt can be used to place cameras, flashlights, headlights, energy bars, etc. at any time.
For one-day short term you can choose 10-15 liters and 15-30 liters is more suit for two days camping line.
