\"My<\/a>

My Eddie Bauer Backpack<\/p><\/div>\n

A constant companion on all 1,100 miles of walking was my Eddie Bauer Trailhead backpack. I guess the correct term is a “day pack” as it is big enough to carry the things you need in a day hike. I carried food, camera, band-aids, sun block, bandannas, extra clothing, sometimes a computer, pencil and paper, spotting scope, (most important) drinks, and, well if I think long enough I can think of something else that I carried. (I seemed to always carry more than I needed.)<\/p>\n

For me, the true test of quality on a backpack are the zippers. I zipped, unzipped, re-zipped the zippers on this pack half a dozen times a day. No snags, no slips, no problems of any kind.<\/p>\n

I bought this pack on sale for $20 locally. One of the best purchases in my life when you calculate miles per dollar or something like that.<\/p>\n
