MOUNTAINMASTER, SUPER LIGHT, MULTI SEASON, ENDURANCE PACK

Features
Summary:
|
 |
Designed for mountain ascents and ultra distance where weight is critical but comfort cannot be compromised. The Medusa features an innovative 'Dual Tool' clean system, which enables tools to be stored upright as well as upside down. Utilises RAPTOR TL fabric combined with a superior and lightweight Montane back comfort pad.
Our Verdict
The Medusa has features that identify it as a climbing pack, a Krab loop on one hip belt wing and the tool carrying attachment on the front lends itself to twin axes. Having said that it has useful side stretch pockets, a single hipbelt pocket and two further pockets in the lid. So it offers quite a bit of organisation.
There's no frame in the pack but the padding on the back is very thick and will protect the wearer from anything inside, its also quite stiff so does provide some support for the load. The hipbelt is decent, this will enable it to carry heavier loads with ease.
Features
