By Abigail Scott
I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Why We Love the Fishpond Firehole 26L Backpack
When it comes to hiking and fly fishing in remote areas, the Fishpond Firehole 26L Backpack is our go-to choice. It is designed with lightweight foam shoulder straps, a molded back panel, an adjustable sternum strap, and a hip belt for ultimate comfort and support. Plus, it comes packed with angler-friendly features.
What sets this backpack apart are the side net holsters and the stowable Hypalon mat in the bottom compartment. The mat can be unfolded to create a drainable pouch perfect for carrying wet waders or wading boots outside the pack, keeping the rest of your gear dry. Additionally, the Firehole easily attaches to other Fishpond chest packs like the Thunderhead Chest Pack, Sagebrush Pro Mesh Vest, Canyon Creek Chest Pack, and Cross-Current Chest Pack using the integrated attachment slots on the shoulder straps and bottom of the frame.
Key Features:
- 26-liter capacity ideal for day trips
- Oversized zipper for easy main compartment access
- 4-way attachment points for lariat gear straps on the sides
- External pockets on the frame and hip belt for quick access
- Integrated net slots and bottle holders on both sides
- Hydration-compatible with top tube exit for hands-free drinking
- Stowable external pouch for convenient wader and wading boot storage
- Fabric made from recycled fishing nets to reduce waste
