A good quality backpack like the (Red Rock Outdoor Gear Rover Sling Pack) can be your best companion whether you are going on a wilderness trip or a summer camp. Before you buy a specialized backpack for your hiking or climbing endeavor, here are three things that you should consider:
• Keep in mind why you need the backpack. A backpack that is carried to school will be very different from the one carried on a camping trip. Also, consider your budget when making a buying decision. When you have an idea about how much you are willing to spend, you know what to look for and where to get it.
• Determine the weight of the backpack. This is especially important when buying assault backpacks. These come with different sections and pockets to carry different items. Some backpacks are made up of special materials that help in keeping the weight of the product down.
• No doubt, pockets and pouches in the backpack come handy for carrying different items but do not buy something that has oodles of packets hanging off the bag that you will hardly use ever. Stick to the basics like water bottle holder, cell phone holder and camera holder.
