Description
The Vango Contour 60:70 Large Hiking Rucksack is designed for hikers and explorers on multi-day hiking trips and expeditions. It is one of the most comfortable, ergonomic, lightweight and functional Vango rucksacks. The model is recommended for use by the DofE Award Association and the Scout Association of Great Britain. The proprietary standard-size Quick Adjust Carry System (QA) has a lightweight aluminum frame that helps to properly redistribute weight. The Quick-Step system allows you to quickly and intuitively adjust the fit of the suspension system to suit the user's height. The backpack is optimized for using a hydration bladder and is equipped with a removable rain cover. The backpack space is divided by a partition into the upper and lower. On the front there are mounts for poles or ice axes. The side and lower ties secure bulky additional equipment, as they have a significant reserve in length.
