Arc'teryx Miura 50 Backpack - 2746-3356cu in

Arc'teryx Miura 50 Backpack - 2746-3356cu in description

Whether you're cragging at Rifle or Indian Creek, the Arc'teryx Miura 50 Backpack carries all you need for a day of sending and keeps your rack organized.

Bottom Line: Arc'teryx brings you the Miura 50 Backpack for those dawn-to-dusk days of climbing.

I don't think you realize how easy it is to get to your gear with this pack. There's two huge BOMBER zippers running down the side of the whole pack, and you can just take the pack off, stand it up (it'll balance standing up!), and pull down both zippers and there's your whole rack, ready to use! Nothing has easier access. Only qualm, the fit in the bottom is a bit tight for the Pali Rope bag, but I guess that's Arc'teryx and its tight tolerances for you. Oh, and like everything else Arc'teryx, build, quality, materials, fit, and suspension have no problems.

This pack is superb. It has tons of room for everything (it can easily fit a rope bag, helmet, rack, food, elephant, etc.) and the quality, as expected, is top notch. The best features by far, however, are the ability to open up the pack completely (the open access to everything inside is a huge bonus: so easy- plus, you can access the main compartment through a zipper in the front pocket) and, in that condition, use it as a camp chair. It's not quite as sturdy in that role as a Crazy Creek, but the fact you can do it at all with a pack is amazing. The side zips are large, chunky beasts that I can see lasting a very long time even with a lot of use. They don't have the water tight feature of many Arc'teryx products, but I think that's a benefit with the kind of use this pack will most likely be receiving. The roll top closure is solid and really easy (just a one fold motion and then you tighten down the side straps). It allows you to jam the pack almost completely full and still close it. This is a very comfortable, versatile, and tough bag... if you're strongly considering it, just go for it. You'll love it!
