This video is the first part of a three-part series reviewing the Kelty Super Tioga large frame backpack. The reviewer argues that external frame packs are superior to internal frame packs for most backpackers, despite current market trends that have made them difficult to find. The pack is highlighted for its suitability for extended trips (5+ days), its lashing capabilities for various gear, organizational features, excellent ventilation, and durable construction. The reviewer specifically mentions its suitability for carrying long items like guns, fishing poles, paddles, and saws. The review contrasts the perceived cubic capacity with the actual functional volume, as external gear doesn't reduce internal pack space. The suspension system is praised for its comfort and ruggedness, and the brand's history of supporting frame packs is noted.
This video, Part 2 of 3, focuses on large frame external backpack systems, specifically the Kelty Super Tioga. The reviewer argues for the superiority of external frame packs over internal frame packs for most backpackers, particularly for extended trips of 5+ days requiring significant gear. The Kelty Super Tioga is highlighted as a durable and capable pack with excellent organization, lashing capabilities, ventilation, and load-bearing comfort, despite being heavier due to its robust construction. The review aims to help potential buyers identify similarly equipped frame packs.
