Hopped onto the trail at Hot Springs, NC and got off around Devil Fork Gap (finished a day earlier than my buddy and I had planned). This was my first vacation since entering the work force and my first time on the AT. My knees were definitely a little angry at me after this climb up to Big Firescald Knob but the view was worth it. Definitely looking forward to future section-hikes! Also the Gregory Baltoro 65 Pack is wonderful :)

My first time section-hiking the AT was wonderful

 It'S actually going to work with you, um. Obviously, you've got your traditional chest, strap fully adjustable and you know fully fully clickable as well. So obviously the hydration bladder itself comes out from that top there and basically comms feed through here, and then you actually connect it on the chest, strap there. So yet again you can feed it through there if you want, or if you want to go the other side, you can feed it through there but, as I said, they try to keep it as basic as possible and let's go down to the lower part of The bag - I just bring that up first and you'll, see, is this little section here now

 What you will notice is obviously these grooves in the straps themselves. Now, basically, wherever than them coming out of the factory flat and molding to you they've already, given you the support and arch that you need so for when it's brand spanking new outside the bag, you're going to get a really nice fit, and you will only see That in Gregory products, so there we have it. This is a great rucksack from Gregory for any more information. Please visit us at simply heiko UK

 Just a little feature, there is a really nice touch to have, especially if you want to get something. That'S nice and you know really tense on nine times that turns out the actual bottom part of the bag, I'm just on the front part as well. What you do have is a nice front, storage area as well, skin.we big enough for any GPS systems, quite actually just to grab items to you know, grab and go items you having a nice and storage unit

 Obviously, talking about the head, you have your traditional, safe pocket in the top part, as well as your traditional rear pocket as well, which it again all nice and spacious, and even the storm flap is nice and rigid as well. So, as I said, they really have going to paid attention to the finer details. Let'S talk about the back system itself, yet again, it's a nice foam padding. So it's going to be really comfortable on your back, especially if you're going to be taking heavy loads

Gregory Packs | Baltoro 65 Backpack Review

- For this experience, the mesh backing behind the straps meant to allow ventilation did not allow ventilation and my back dripped the entire time. I've had previous experience with Osprey's anti-gravity mesh system and I know noticed a big difference between the two, which was one of the things that made me nervous about going with Gregory. Unfortunately my fears came true and it did little to nothing to cool off my back and keep it somewhat dry. For me, it's a deal breaker because I sweat a lot when I hike (sorry to be gross)

- The daypack was nothing special but it was adequate. I used it in the middle portion of the trip where we hiked to some lakes (about 10 miles round trip), and it held a set of rain pants, a rain shell, a Nalgene bottle, bug spray, and a large bagged lunch. I will say that my shoulders were a bit sore the next day, there is not chest clip to hold the straps in front of you.

- The right side mesh pocket is specifically angled and designed to hold and access a Nalgene water bottle while you're hiking and it ACTUALLY works. Huge plus on the trail.

 Unfortunately my fears came true and it did little to nothing to cool off my back and keep it somewhat dry. For me, it's a deal breaker because I sweat a lot when I hike (sorry to be gross).

Not bad but not great (for me)

 I Got my sleeping bag just to fill it out see and you can see the shape of it. You've got a hydration hydration pocket in the back access to for the hydration hose out the sides here but just want to show you guys that. overall very nice. Very nice backpack

 The lumbar pad is very nice. Get in the light there for you. Okay, the lumbar pad has like a silicone coating, it's nonstick or it's very sticky, Rather keeps your back nice and planted. Really kind of locks in the lumbar region so you don't get a lot of a lot of stress on your back and it really transfers these

 Shoulder straps actually have two positions so it'll even more fine-tuned to your your torso length on the padded waist belt. We have little pouches here. They're pretty small, but you don't really want a huge pouch here because it's going to get in the way of your of your hand and you're hiking both as you're walking. So it's just for small ends

 overall very nice. Very nice backpack. I'm kind of a perfectionist when it comes to stuff like this and you know I Don't think you can beat this one for the for the money you do have forgot to mention earrings. We do have side pockets here

Gregory Baltoro 65 Pack Review

  The include small backpack sleeve is nice if you want to leave the big packpack at the tent and throw breakfast and coffee, stove, to hike a bit to a vista.  I have smaller Gregory  packs, nano and miwok, and am pleased with them.  Be careful on sizing.  I am probably in between med and large but making large work

  Be careful on sizing.  I am probably in between med and large but making large work.

  The outside pocket is nice. The waterproof pocket on the hip belt is too small for a standard iphone and it is incredulous that the designers did not change it when changing the color scheme for the next year. I opted for this pack because of the Gregory name and the comfort at the cost of some weight. It does come with a custom rain cover

Comfortable Backpack

 But because it was $300 and it weighs over five pounds and it wasn't comfortable for me and that may not be the back of the packs fault like I said, but it gives a three out of five and category rating I think there's packs at Cost labs that are as good or better I think those packs that probably cost more that aren't as good. So three out of five on category rating. So overall Gregory Baltoro gets a score of 2.4 Now that's not super high, but as I'm doing these reviews I have set this this criteria up to where nothing's gonna get a very high score

 So overall Gregory Baltoro gets a score of 2.4 Now that's not super high, but as I'm doing these reviews I have set this this criteria up to where nothing's gonna get a very high score. so we'll see going forward how 2.4 stacks up

 Make sure that you spend a lot of time as much time as you possibly can in the pack with it. Full load it down because it might fit frying. It might fit great without any weight in it or very little weight in it. but once you get all your stuff in there and you're hiking up the trail, it might be uncomfortable, so make sure you try it on full weight

Switchback Travel | Gregory Baltoro 75 Backpack (2022) Review

OutdoorGearLab

One of the best sleeping bag bargains we've come across is the REI Co-op Trailbreak 30. Although this bag doesn't win any performance awards outright, it's the most affordable bag we've found that's suitable for backpacking and other human-powered adventures. At 2.5 pounds for warmth down to 30° F, it's roughly 80% heavier than the lightest high-end bags, yet it's several pounds lighter than comparable car camping models. It also packs considerably smaller than most similarly priced options. 
To enjoy this bargain, you have to be willing to accept some compromises. As we mentioned, the warmth-to-weight ratio is subpar compared to premium backpacking sleeping bags. Compared to many car camping models, however, the Trailbreak 30 offers considerable advantages in terms of warmth, weight, and packed size. Folks that exclusively car camp may be happier with the roominess of a rectangular bag, but for those people that like to venture a little ways from the trailhead, the Trailbreak 30 is up to the task and a fantastic deal.

Switchback Travel

REI Co-op’s Trailbreak line targets the budget end of the market and includes everything from sleeping pads and bags to backpacks. The Trailbreak trekking pole is the brand’s cheapest offering and has nearly all the features that beginning and occasional hikers need. You get an aluminum build, a telescoping design with lever locks, and a rubber grip. Nothing is premium here—no carbon, no cork grip, no padded wrist strap, and the locks are about as minimal as they come. In addition, the Trailbreak is only made in one size, although it is adjustable from 41 to 55 inches. But at $70, it’s tough to beat the low price.

What do you sacrifice with the REI Trailbreak? Sturdiness is a big concession, and for heavy use and difficult terrain, these poles pale in comparison to the build of a more rugged model like the Black Diamond Trail Ergo. And as we touched on above, the Trailbreak is light on features, so you miss out on useful touches including choke-up extensions and longer-lasting materials like cork handles and burlier and more reliable lever locks. If you stick to established trails and are looking for the basics in balance and support, the Trailbreak will certainly do the trick. But more serious hikers and backpackers may want to purchase a higher-end model. For other well-built budget options, check out Black Diamond’s Trail Sport 2 and Trail Explorer 3.See the REI Co-op Trailbreak

REI’s Trailbreak collection targets the entry-level end of the market and includes everything from trekking poles and packs to a pillow and sleeping bags. The Trailbreak pad is the brand’s most affordable camping mat with a $75 MSRP, but it doesn’t sacrifice much in the way of quality. In terms of design, you get a simple and relatively thin 1.75-inch self-inflating build, durable fabrics along the top and bottom, and separate, color-coded inflation and deflation valves. The pad is unquestionably basic, but it’ll get the job done for those who sleep on their back and aren’t too finicky about comfort.

The biggest red flag with the Trailbreak is its 1.75-inch thickness, which is the second-thinnest on our list (the Sea to Summit Camp SI below is 1.5 in.). Simply put, the REI lacks the cushioning to be a suitable option for side sleepers or those who value plush and supportive padding. For $50 more, their Camp Bed below is 0.75 inches thicker, a considerable 5 inches wider, and has a higher R-value (7.6 vs. the Trailbreak’s 5.1). But the Trailbreak still is an excellent value for occasional campers, budget seekers, and/or back sleepers, and especially if you can pick one up on sale or use your yearly REI dividend.See the REI Co-op Trailbreak  See the Women's REI Trailbreak
