Road-Trippin
Mountainsmith has been building packs for the people who go further since 1979. We took their gear on a road trip through the American Southwest to show what it looks like when a pack earns its keep — state after state, trailhead after trailhead.
Every mile starts with what's on your back.
Mountainsmith builds packs the way Colorado builds mountains — with no shortcuts and nothing wasted. After 45 years in the game, they still make gear that outlasts the trails you put it through.
