When we need a little extra room and carrying strength, we load up Osprey's Ariel Plus 85 Backpack for our expedition into the backcountry. The extra beefy frame handles our heavier load with ease, allowing us to focus on the muddled path ahead. When we're blue blazing, we transition the top lid into a daypack to leave the weight behind for a few hours off the main trail.
