User Review: Kelty Red Cloud (5500)

Kelty Red Cloud
Above: The current Red Cloud, which may differ slightly from the version reviewed.

Rating: rated 3.5 of 5 stars
Design: top loading with bottom sleeping bag compartment
Size: 5500
Number of Pockets: 6
Max. Load Carried: 30 lbs.
Price Paid: $90

Done some day hikes with this pack. Will eventually do longer and heavier hikes. Handled 20 to 30 pounds well.

To shrink the pack, mate the lid clip to the sleeping bag compartment compression clip and the pack compresses vertically automatically. Also, place the loadlifter strap to the bottom rung.

This review is for the old Redcloud 5500 (maybe 5 to 7 year old model).
