    Granite Gear VC 60 Pack

    I may regret this but I'm selling my Granite Gear VC 60 pack. It's by far the most comfortable pack I've ever carried. By some standards it's a very light pack weighing in at 2 lbs, 2 oz. It's like new condition. You could easily get this pack under 2 lbs if you trimmed all of the straps but I never did incase I wanted to sell it. I bought this pack to be a true 4 season or extended hike pack while still being lighter than the Osprey pack that I had before this one. Only used it a couple of times before I moved on to a Gossamer Gear Murmur. New these run for $200. I'm selling mine for $165 and I'll take care of the shipping and paypal costs to anywhere in the conus.

    The pack is a medium torso, medium belt. I'm 5'7" with a 33" waist and it fits me perfectly.

    Some of the features:

    -load lifters
    -stretchy pockets on the shoulder straps (small; only for something like chapstick)
    -Has a removable high density plastic frame which is why this pack carrys so well. If you want to get the pack under 2 lbs you can take it out and you end up with a sub 2 lb pack that can work as a day pack or for a multi-day winter pack.
    -Has a good compression system
    -has a hydration port

    I'm using the proceeds to fund a new ultralight pack

    What waist size do you think would be the max this pack could fit? I'm a 38.

    It would fit, the straps would fit somebody with a 40 something waste easy. The padded portion of the hip belt are rather short they don't wrap all the way around to the front. They basically wrap just around the side of the hip how they would fit on somebody with a 38 waist I don't know. I've included a few pictures, hopefully they'll make sense.
    Thanks

    I agree Onawhym; I'm supprised no one has jumped on this, even at the higher prices! I see people on the trail all the time with 3-5 lb packs that I know don't carry as well as this one. If I end up keeping it, I won't cry. I think this would be a really good pack for winter or for longer summer trips where you're carrying more food, water, or clothes but at this weight It's also ideal for a one night stay.

    If I could only have one pack, this would be it or Zpacks Arc Blast but if you look at the price delta...well, this is a good deal!


    We'll see
