What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying: "I've loaded this up for longer trips where food and gear really add up. The AlumaLite frame keeps the weight stable, and the load lifters help dial in the fit as the pack settles. The RipZip opening is great for quick access, and the separate sleeping bag compartment keeps camp setup simple." When the itinerary stretches beyond a quick overnight and into full-on expedition mode, we shoulder the Skala 60L Backpack and commit to the miles ahead. YETI engineered this pack for extended treks, giving us the structure, capacity, and comfort to carry everything we need when day three is only the beginning. The lightweight AlumaLite frame supports heavier loads, working with load lifters and an adjustable harness to distribute weight evenly across long distances. Guardcore(TM) nylon construction keeps the pack strong yet manageable, reinforced in high-wear zones for added durability. A RipZip pull-to-open design makes accessing the main compartment quick and efficient, while a dedicated bottom compartment neatly stores a sleeping bag for organized camp transitions. With a vented mesh back panel promoting airflow and multiple internal and external pockets keeping gear in order, this is the pack we trust when the trail demands commitment.
