The ranger who said skip the Osprey and grab a $40 pack from Goodwill
Met a ranger at Glacier last May. Told me to ditch my fancy 65L for a battered 40L I found at a thrift store. Said the weight limit was the real filter. I laughed. But he was right. Carried 22 lbs total for 6 days on the Highline Trail. Felt like cheating. My knees didn't scream. My old pack with all its straps and pockets? Now it just gathers dust in the garage. Has anyone else had success going lighter with junk gear instead of buying new?
