TIP: The online Bushwalk Inventory System can help bushwalkers with a variety of bushwalk planning tasks, including: Manage which items they take bushwalking so that they do not forget anything they might need, plan meals for their walks, and automatically compile food/fuel shopping lists (lists of consumables) required to make and cook the meals for each walk. It is particularly useful for planning for groups who share food or other items, but is also useful for individual walkers.

Looking at the first model on the website, the “weightless” backpack actually weighs 890 grams.
Am I missing something?

I also assume that this is based on a waist belt taking the weight and therefore there is no weight on the shoulder straps.
Pretty much like every other backpack in the world if you set it up that way!
