I enjoy hiking and backpacking. I go to Yellowstone once a year.

What’s the best pack to buy? I have one but bought it at Sports Academy and I feel there should be better ones out there.

    I’m sorry, I read “place to buy”, not “pack to buy.” That is a tough one, and really subjective. Framed, frameless, ultralight and any feature you could want. Personally, I prefer ultralight with a frame. The two brands we have in the house are Superior Wilderness Designs and ULA. I picked the SWD Hauler after handing my Six Moons Designs Fusion (not made anymore, unfortunately) to my son. I reseached a tonne of packs and had a bunch of reddit conversations before settling on it. And you’d have to pry my wife’s ULA Cuircuit out of her cold dead hands - took a bit of convincing to upgrade her from her previous pack but she loves the newer one.
