Description

A revamped incarnation of the award-winning Vapor Trail, the Granite Gear Crown V.C. 60 sports an innovative lightweight suspension, trail-friendly organizational features and a weight of just over 2 pounds! This combination of features is ideal for ultra-lightweight backpacking and thru-hiking.

Equipped with Granite Gear's Vapor Current suspension, a molded/channeled backpanel, a die-cut HDPE framesheet and supportive foam padding, the Crown V.C. 60 maintains load stability, comfortably carries up to 35 pounds and combats heat and moisture build-up. Padded shoulder straps and a padded hipbelt provide additional comfort and load support. For true ounce-counting backpackers, the framesheet can even be removed to further reduce the weight of the Crown V.C. 60.

To ensure an optimal fit, the Crown V.C. 60 is available in two torso sizes. The Regular (3660 cubic inches of storage capacity) fits torso lengths ranging from 18"-21" and the Long (4000 cu in) fits 21"-25" torsos. An adjustable sternum strap and load-lifter straps provide fine-tuned fit adjustment.

A large, lidless main compartment provides ample storage capacity and a roll-down, cinch-tight spindrift collar protects the contents of the packbag while keeping weight to a minimum. Lightweight integrated Line-Loc compression cord keeps gear securely in place. A large front stuff-it pocket serves as an additional storage space and twin side mesh pockets are perfect for water bottles or other gear. Integrated attachment points on the hipbelt serve as external gear lash points. The Granite Gear Line-Loc lid (sold separately) is available as an additional storage pocket and provider of further packbag protection.

The Granite Gear Crown V.C. 60 internal frame backpack is available in your choice of sizes.

Great Lightweight Pack

Likes

I was looking for a pack with a great lightweight/capacity ratio. This pack meets that need. Over the years backpacking with heavy packs and heavy gear, my knees are given me problems. So to continue with this sports for years to come, I needed to do something. This pack gets me one more step closer to lightweight/minimalist backpacking at a reasonable price.

It's been really great so far. It has everything I need and nothing I don't. I love the huge main pocket and the stretch pockets on the outside. I like the compression strap system too. I especially love the fact that it is super light and surprisingly comfortable.

Dislikes

No hipbelt pockets for my snacks. However you can buy one separately.

Light, strong and very comfortable. packed over 30 pounds in it an even fit a bear bin in too. I have slim hips but am tall so the separate hip belt sizing was a plus.

Love this pack! Load transfer was great! Hip belt is amazingly comfortable. I really liked the roll top closure. You can reach the outside stretch pockets while the pack is on. Overall great design and quality. Very comfortable even when loaded to the max.

Very light and relatively rigid. The weight limit is true or maybe conservative. I likes having this product to the backpacking.

-Tons of space, the roll top closure unravels what seems like a yard from the top of the back panel. -The shove-it stretch mesh front is huge. -Super comfortable VC suspension keeps the weight close to your back for great stability but still keeps you cool. -Can still cinch down small enough for an overnighter. -Very nice mesh shoulder strap pockets. - Line-loc compression straps and UL buckles are strong and easy to replace. -It's only 34oz!!!

Dislikes

-Hipbelt sizing not accurate. Granite Gear states 30-34 is a Medium. I am 32 waist and ordered Medium. I had to cinch it down completely. I returned for a Small and it fits perfect. INCREDIBLE customer service from Backcountryedge! Gave them my tracking number and they shipped my hipbelt the same day. Best pack I have ever owned!
