Your Backpack Review

When you compare Alps Mountaineering external frame packs to some of their competitors, you’ll quickly notice that you get more features and a lower price with ALPS … without sacrificing quality. As ALPS’s reputation for quality packs has grown, we’ve had numerous requests for external packs, and for 2010, we’ve designed 2 models that are worth checking out. The Zion has a sleeping bag compartment and top loading access. There are various pockets to keep your gear organized and important items handy.
