- Time of past OR future Camino
- Camino Primitivo
I am hiking the Camino Primitivo in September/October 2022 and seeking a backpack with the following features:
1. measurements suitable for carry-on for American and Iberian (22” x 15.75” x 9.84”)
2. light or ultralight (between 2-3.5 lbs)
3. practical features/organization (nothing too complicated), and in the 35-60 L range.
Next week I am going to my local REI to try and test backpacks. I have my eye on the following packs and was curious if anyone had strong opinions on them (excellent Camino backpack, overkill for Camino, etc.), mostly by Granite Gear and one REI:
- Granite Gear Crown2 60 Pack
2 lbs 4.7 oz
- Granite Gear Crown2 38 Pack
2 lbs 1.5 oz
- Granite Gear Perimeter 50 Pack
3 lbs
- Granite Gear Blaze 60 Pack
3 lbs 1.6 oz
- REI Co-op Flash 45 Pack
2 lbs 8.5 oz
Thanks for you input!
