The Kestrel 48L Backpack from Osprey is your go-to companion for two-day summit bids and quick overnight adventures. Designed for lightweight, fast-paced trips, this backpack offers exceptional support and versatility.
The Kestrel's LightWire frame and Airscape backpanel provide a comfortable fit, even when carrying loads up to 40 lbs. This makes it perfect for two-day backpacking adventures. Additionally, the feature-rich design allows you to easily carry all the gear you need to reach your destination safely.
Equipped with two daisy chain gear loops and Osprey's Stow-on-the-Go trekking pole loops, the Kestrel offers convenient attachment points for your gear. You can quickly free your hands when tackling more challenging sections of the trail.
For unpredictable weather conditions, Osprey has included an integrated rain cover with the backpack. You won't have to worry about finding shelter if it starts to rain. The external hydration sleeve accepts a three-liter bladder (sold separately), ensuring you stay hydrated on the trail.
