Minimalist Mountaineering Bags

The Mountainsmith Scream Series is Light and Tear-Resistant

Hiking and mountaineering call for lightness and agility, and the Mountainsmith Scream Series is a pack that helps alpinists to shave off weight and go deeper into the wilderness. The new line of backpacks are designed to be as light as possible without sacrificing durability, utility, or space, letting hikers travel lightly and efficiently.

There are two bags in the Mountainsmith Scream Series, the Scream 55 and the Scream 50 (with volumes of 55 and 50 liters, respectively). Aside from their space and color schemes, the bags are similar to one another, featuring comfortable design and similar pocket layouts. Both bags are also made out of Robic fabric and Ultra Tear-Strength PU coating, which prevents tears and abrasions even during high-intensity use.

Each bag weighs in under three pounds, so hikers can focus on carrying their gear rather than carrying the thing that's carrying their gear.
