You seem to be a good person to ask: with all the eucalyptus trees, where are the koalas?
Ah, the lost koalas of northern Spain. They used to travel in vast herds across the Meseta, eating eucalyptus to their hearts' content. Then the Spaniards determined how tasty they were, morcilla de Burgos was born, and the herds were no more. A very sad but delicious story.

Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.
