Mystery Ranch Glacier 50

rated 4 of 5 stars
photo: Mystery Ranch Glacier 50 weekend pack (50-69l)
Version reviewed: women's Glacier 50

Older version of the women's Glacier 50. Well made. I am 5' 120 pounds, have an extra small. Not a frequent backpacker, several multi-day overnights and most recently a section of AZ Trail including Grand Canyon. After multiple adjustments and weight distribution, the pack's hip belt is not a good fit, very bulky. No amount of adjustments stopped the hipbelt padding from limiting stride. One small tear in the bottom of pack, fixable. Recommend for anyone taller than me.

Pros

  • Adjustable
  • Good support
  • Good stitching
  • Zippers work well

Cons

  • XS women's pack is made for over 5' hiker.
  • Over built hip belt is great annoyance.
