The Elite 1800 is your pack of choice for short trips or ultralight bivouacs. The main compartment features zippers along both sides of the pack so that the compartment can be fully exposed to access items anywhere in the bag without having to "fish around" and pull-out gear (unlike the typical top-load bags). Inside the main compartment are five mesh pockets to keep smaller items organized and easily reached. Additionally, the bags feature a zippered top compartment for storing quick-access items and three exterior stretch fabric pockets with buckle adjustment straps for securing larger, more awkward items. The Elite frame and pack bag credit their lightweight and "ready-for-adventure" sturdiness to the 500D Cordura fabric. This lightweight material is exceptionally strong and abrasion-resistant and is PU coated to make it highly water-resistant and fast to dry. This system was designed so that the frame can be used as a standalone solution for hauling meat or with the pack bag to meet the specific needs of wilderness hunters.
