Mariposa 60 Backpack
  • PVT Frame System

    Our Patent Pending PVT Frame system is designed to maximize your comfort on trail. The closed-shape aluminum frame provides rigidity and strength that matches your back's contour. It slips in the pocket of a pivot belt that fits you like a glove. Together, the system allows your pack to move with your natural gait.

  • Alternative Belt Options

    Available in multiple sizes, as well as straight and curved fits, this hipbelt hugs your body for optimum weight transfer. Say hello to less chafing and more comfort.

  • Redesigned Load Lifters

    The Mariposa load lifters have been redesigned alongside our new frame for an improved performance and better carry.

Gear Notes

Named for the butterflies that can travel 100 miles a day. This world-famous pack weighs a little and hauls a lot. Recycled Robic nylon resists cuts and tears. Ample pockets make organization a breeze. The Mariposa is sized for big trips, bear canisters, and serious mileage.

An S-curve harness and load lifters provide even weight distribution, and you'll enjoy our signature PVT Frame+Belt: an aluminum, closed-shape frame and pivoting hipbelt that allow your pack to move with your natural gait for maximum comfort.

**Our Small Mariposa comes with a S/M Curved Belt. Our Medium and Large Mariposa comes with a Medium Straight Belt. The process for receiving another belt is to add an additional hipbelt to your order, swap it out at home, and then return the original belt for a $25 refund.
