HMG 2400 Southwest 40L - differs from the 2400 Windrider only in that it replaces the outer mesh pockets with three durable, ripstop Dyneema® Hardline pockets. Use this highly functional and comfortable backpack for day trips, weekend hikes, section hiking or months on the trail where frequent resupply points are available, such as the Appalachian Trail, the Long Trail or the El Camino de Santiago. Made from 100% waterproof Dyneema® Composite Fabrics (formerly Cuben Fiber), the 2400 Southwest is highly durable and weatherproof.
Organize and further protect your clothes, gear and sleeping bag from bad weather using HMG Stuff Sacks. Streamlined and optimized to help you avoid snagging your pack on the sharp, prickly vegetation that fills America’s deserts.
