A staple in the Granite Gear line since the 1980’s, the Precipice is designed for climbers who are looking for a durable pack that can take years of abuse, but it’s also been applauded by lightweight backpackers. The Precipice got the highest score in BACKPACKER MAGAZINE’S “Packs For The Short Haul” test of overnight packs in February, 2002. This pack will be with you for the long haul!
