The old backpack had a small problem: two sections only. The first one, to the back, was only useful to put the laptop. Everything else had to go into the open section.
There is a small outside pocket for quick access stuff.
Watching people get appropriate carriers, I decided I needed to jump on that bandwagon. I tried it out this weekend, but I think I need some longer bungee-straps for my Tripod (to make it immobile).
This is a TamRac Expedition 5.
Everyone has a place or two that they want to keep secret. This is definitely one of ours. Paul and I went back to an old stomping grounds for a week long backpacking trip to celebrate his 50th birthday. Our original route was cancelled due to a fire in the area, but Plan B turned out great. We caught some cutthroats, saw 5 black bear, 5 rattlesnakes, osprey, eagles, big Chinook salmon and the Perseid meteor showers. The weather was warm for carrying heavy packs, but at least a couple rain storms drenched us. There was a microburst that came through the area one afternoon, like a freight train, that had us watching multiple trees busting over. Luckily the tall cedars, douglas firs and ponderosa pines at our camp bent, but did not break. An awesome trip in an amazing place with a great friend.
The Backpack is located at 74 New Church Street in Cape Town, within a short walking distance to Long Street and the city centre. 5* Hostel voted Best Hostel in South Africa and No 2 Hostel in Africa. FairTrade Tourism accredited.
This from is an experimental project I did with my illustration students at the university (UPB, Medellin). The idea was to see if we could customize Nike backpacks, what materials should be used and what results it could offer.
Nike donated the backpacks, and each student got to keep theirs after the project was done.
(The thing sticking out of the back pack is a another student project, from another class)
Keep in mind that I didn't actually make any of these, they're entirely the student's work.
When my rolling backpack isn't used as my carry-on luggage or to transport groceries from the store to my apartment, it houses my socks, underwear, umbrella, and cell phone charger. (I sewed the Duck Hunt patch onto it.)
The "Women Backpacking Together" Meetup met at the Caribou Lake Trailhead in the Caribou Wilderness in the middle of the night... around midnight. Lorrie and I were there around 7:30pm so after we put up our tent and built a fire, we warded off the bears by making a lot of noise. Four plus hours! We were up around 9am and out on the trail around 11am. Got to our camp at North Divide Lake around 3:30pm and set in for a cold night. Snow all around but we found a nice meadow to camp in.
It's technically illegal to camp on the beach in New Zealand, unless in a designated spot. The morning I went to shoot the sunrise at Cathedral Cove this late summer/early autumn, there were some European backpackers doing just that though. The beach at Cathedral Cove is at least 100 meters long. And the only people on the beach were these two campers (who I think we woke up), my husband and I, and a random Asian guy wandering around in full rain and winter gear. When i set up my shot, this girl walked into the surf and stood there. JUST as the sun came up. Prime light time. I was max 20 meters from the rock quite obviously shooting it with my tripod etc. There were acres of beach behind me. And she would not move. So now she is in my shot. Forever. I wish she would have moved. But now, we can all wonder what she thought she was doing there in my shot.

This afternoon I received a wonderful package from the good folks over at JanSport!
The package contained their collaborative Westridge Backpack and Snoqualmie Duffel with HUF that we posted a few days ago on Solediction.
As you can see, QUALITY is what both brands had in mind when planning out each piece. Incorporating a black exterior with a faded assortment of leather detailing, this collection is a must have for just about anyone. And for all you skateboarders, each bag includes straps in which allow you to carry your board - as well as integrated laptop sleeves within the main compartments for you students and businessmen.
Both are set to release August 13th (2009) at HUF flagship stores and select retailers in a limited run of 150 per piece. Please be sure to check out the micro-site JanSport has set up for the special collaboration as well as the short Q+A they had with their Director of Design, Eric Rothenhaus, and HUF's founder Keith Hufnagel.
Tim was almost completely hobbled by his hiking boots on our very first day in the backcountry. He hiked the next couple of days in his sandals and hiking socks. What a trooper...
In order to free up some clutter I used an Amazon credit to purchase a Twelve South Backpack…nice little solution!
