Gossamer Gear Mariposa 60 Backpack
Ultra-lightweight backpack for long treks.
Product information
- Manufacturer: Gossamer Gear
- Product code: MARIPOSA
The Gossamer Gear Mariposa 60 is an ultralight backpack with plenty of storage space for long-distance treks and pilgrimages. Comes with a hip belt size M.
The backpack won the Editors' choice award as the best ultralight backpack in the Outdoorgearlab.com test. It has been ranked at the top for a long time. We recommend it especially for long hiking trips, where you will appreciate the ample internal space along with the extra-large external pockets (60l in total).
It is one of the most popular packs on long distance treks like the PCT due to the combination of very light weight for the volume, comfort of carrying, and sufficient durability for this type of travel. Compared to its brother pack, the Gorilla 50 adds balance straps on the shoulders to increase comfort under heavier loads, in addition to the larger volume.
In size S and when filled to the appropriate limits with the use of the compression straps, it can also be taken as hand luggage on the plane.

Pohodlně se nosí (na rozdíl od mnoha batohů s komplikovaným zádovým systémem) a skvělé je uspořádání kapes, díky kterému nemusím několikrát denně lézt dovnitř batohu (pokud si věci systematicky rozmístím). Přijde mi pohodlnější, když je plná, než když je poloplná.
Jednou za čas ji vyperu v pračce na 30°C (bez zádové minikarimatky a bez vyjímatelného rámu). Dělám to tak roky a nikdy se nepoškodila.
Na rozdíl od Gossamer Gear Gorilla 50 nemá po stranách kompresní popruhy, což bych ocenila zejména, nen-li batoh zcela naplněn.
