BERGHAUS FAST HIKE 45 (Ultralight Backpack) for sale
I purchased this backpack to lighten my pack for my 6 day hike of the Overland Track. I love it. I've only used it for trial runs and picking up groceries from urban supermarket.
However I've found that I'm not minimalist and ultralight enough on what I'm taking to the Overland Track for 6 days. And I ended up buying another pack with expandable capacity that goes 40 - 60 Litres (the Sierra Designs Flex Capacitor).
I was thinking do I keep my Berghaus, as I do love it, or do I sell it? Will I honestly use it now I have my Flex Capacitor and given I'm not really UL enough in that I'm taking a goddamn Helinox chair with me on hikes, and / or also lugging my 2 year old daughter's stuff. And probably not, or at least not for some years when I've got more UL and I'm solo without daughter.
Would someone on the Bushwalk community get better use out of it? Yep. Yes - someone who's relatively ultralight, with a low base weight.
As new.

Berghaus Fast Hike 45
45 Litres
