Mountain Hardwear Scrambler Backpack Mountain Hardwear: Scrambler Backpack

A compressible 1600-cubic-inch portable daypack that unfolds for impromptu hiking trips.

Most daypack designs don't store well but Mountain Hardwear's Scrambler Backpack has a fold-down design so you can keep it in your car SUV or boat until you're ready to hit the trail. Mountain Hard Wear optimized the storage design by eliminating the waistbelt so as long as you're hiking light with a shell lunch and water bottle the 1600-cubic-inch main compartment in the Scrambler Backpack should be more than enough room for an afternoon outing. An exterior Front bungee design makes it easy to attach an extra layer or dry out a damp rain jacket. The Scrambler Backpack has a drawcord closure beneath the attached lid to keep your gear protected from moderate precipitation.

Don't you just hate taking a walk only to find the temp has changed and now wish you could remove or add a layer. Stash a layer before you heat up too much or pull out a shell when the wind picks up and the sky becomes threatening. With the Scrambler it's now easy to take an extra garment along or stow one with ease. Nothing hard in there then remove the pad ( which adds about 4 ounces to the stated 11 ) and you still have a comfortable pack you will hardly know is there. Also much cooler without the foam pad.

Good for ultralight pack for backpacking treks but not suitable for everyday school/work use. Flimsy straps and thin (but tough) fabric. The inner frame pad is really thin and doesn't hold form. No waist belt.


The perfect pack for me Image: 5 Stars

I've been looking for a pack that I can take around town. This pack fits the bill perfectly. It stuffs down into a built-in pouch and the resulting package fits in a water bottle cage on my bike. I can leave it there until I need it (grocery shopping the library etc). It's completely unobtrusive and so far has held up very well. Definitely worth the price.
