A unique blend of technology and simplicity in a pack designed for alpinists and trekkers who value lightness above all. The SuperScrambler includes a closedcell foam backpanel pad and Mountain Hardwears unique HardWave thermoformed framesheet that keeps the backpanel flat and smooth, while preserving flexibility. To reduce weight further, remove the framesheet and fold a sleeping pad into the internal backpanel pocket to create a simplified, yet padded, suspension. This is a pack for advanced users who know how to pack for minimum weight and maximum comfort.

This pack is great for what it is: super light weight alpine climbing pack. It takes a bit of thinking to fill this pack in such a way so that it is tall enough & the frame sheet stays in a useful position (a little more difficult if there's not as much stuff to fill it out). The fabric is both a pro & con: super lighte weight & not the burliest (burly enough... holes are repairable when/if they do happen). This is one of the few packs I own that does not chafe my shoulders when making the approach in a tank top... due to the smooth fabric that comes in contact with bare skin.
