While nearly everyone loves the concept of our ultralight packs there are some folks who travel in unforgiving country who need a pack with more volume and weight carrying capability, built with beefier fabrics to hold up to the rigors of a harsh environment. Yet they still want it to be as light as possible and offer the convenience of access. While this seems like pie-in-the-sky thinking, Granite Gear managed to fulfill the wish with the Stratus Latitude. With the Stratus 3D molded composite Tepex frame and the Light Pack Exoskeleton Belt, this pack can easily support 50 pound loads with amazing comfort and it has the capacity to swallow up lots of gear, like 4-season tents, sub-zero sleeping bags, warm clothing and enough food to go unsupported for a week. Bring it!
