Minimalist V2 Pack
Six Moon Designs
Minimalist V2 Pack
$259.95
Description

  Six Moon Designs took the simple, clean design of the Minimalist, and using customer feedback, made it even better. The Minimalist V2 still has the perfect amount of space for all your gear and a lightweight suspension that adds just enough support but now with larger, more secure stash pockets. Even the lettering took on a new modern, subtle look. Thanks for the help making the thru-hikers dream backpack even better.

  Despite being called the Minimalist, this pack provides all the comforts of much heavier packs. It comes with a removable Delrin Hoop Stay Frame and hip belt for maximum load days. And because every long-distance hiker is different, it has a lot of configurations to suit your specific comforts and offers a remarkable amount of extra storage space.

  Comes with the standard Flight Shoulder Harness and Flight Hipbelt.

Overview
The main compartment is 40L with a 9L extension collar. It incorporates a top lid and has two additional large external gusseted pockets as well as a front stasher pocket with a pleated gusset. The top lid can be used to secure larger bear canisters too large to fit in the main compartment.

The exterior pockets add a lot of quick access storage solutions. And all the external pockets have been reconstructed for the V2, featuring larger, more secure designs.

-- Hip belt pockets are cavernous.
-- Both harness styles offer additional pockets for electronics, snacks, or other necessities.
-- 2 large asymmetric side pockets. The shorter right pocket is great for holding water bottles. The taller left pocket is perfect for carrying an ultralight tarp, tent, or tall hydration bladder.
-- Large rear shove-it sleeve for quick access to gear and rainwear.

The Minimalist V2 offers several adjustable straps and tensioners to ensure a stable, comfortable fit. The Delrin Hoop Frame is designed to shift load bearing to the hip belt, reducing the strain on your shoulders and upper body.

Frame Configuration
The Minimalist comes with a removable Delrin Hoop Stay Frame. The ends of the hoop rest on the base of the hip belt, transferring the weight to the hip belt. This design feature makes carrying heavy loads more comfortable and reduces pack sag.
Using the Delrin Hoop Stay and hip belt together increases your load carrying capacity by approximately 10 lbs*.
*We recommend a base weight of 12 lbs or less even when increasing load weight and using the Delrin Hoop Stay and hip belt.

Frameless Configuration
The Minimalist is the only ultralight, frame-less pack on the market with an adjustable torso length. This allows the Minimalist to provide unbridled comfort.
When configured as frame-less, the highest recommended base weight is 8 lbs / 3.5 kg and maximum weight not exceeding 25 lbs / 11 kg.

Standard Flight Shoulder Straps
If you’re used to carrying a traditional backpacking pack and aren’t from the running world, you will probably be comfortable with standard shoulder straps.

Biden Expands Two National Monuments, Protecting 120,000 Acres Significant to Tribes

Solo Stove Launches Outdoor ‘Movie Night’: Screen Chairs, Popcorn Maker, and More
  Fire pits were just the beginning. While Solo Stove first wowed us in the 20-teens with its hallmark smokeless campfire magic, it has since expanded again and again into new, loosely fire-related territory (think patio heaters, outdoor tables, and indoor fire bowls).   This week, the Austin firebrand makes perhaps its most ambitious expansion yet — into the world of cinema. Solo...

Always Safe, but a Dash of Sideways Fun: Electric Volvo EX30 Winter Testing
  The new 2025 Volvo EX30 is a full-electric subcompact crossover that will hit the U.S. market this summer. First off, all versions of the vehicle are a great new car value — especially for an EV. Pricing ranges from $34,950 to $47,900. But, lets focus on whether you should buy the rear-wheel-drive (RWD) or all-wheel-drive (AWD) version.   I flew to...

The Best Axes for Splitting Wood of 2024
  After foolishly agreeing to have nearly two cords of large pine rounds dumped on our driveway last spring, we spent the summer hauling, drying, splitting, and stacking wood with each of these axes in order to find the best and bring you our recommendations.   This particular load of wood put our lineup of splitting axes and our axe-wielding testers through...

Our Favorite High-Performance Trail Bikes This Year
  Testers and PinkBike editors spent the last year hitting singletrack from Bellingham to Squamish to evaluate 2024s newest crop of trail bikes. Fifteen bikes, ranging from hard-charging, downhill-oriented crushers to cross-country-style rippers, were in the mix, but when all the dust settled, these six impressed the most in overall performance.

Flying Drones May Soon Haul Trash Off Mount Everest
  A new workforce may be coming to Mount Everest.   Nepali officials believe that flying drones may soon ferry garbage and gear from high camps down to Base Camp. Earlier this week, officials with the Pasang Lhamu Khumbu Rural Municipality—the local agency that oversees the Nepali side of the mountain—tested a Chinese-made cargo drone above the mountain to see how it...
The Best Gluten-Free Freeze Dried Meals: Camp Food for Everyone
  I count the day my wife said she’d like to go on an extended backpacking trip with me as one of the happiest of my life. And to a lesser degree, a stressful one.   Kat eats gluten-free. On previous shorter backpacking trips, she made her own meals, like red chile enchiladas with corn tortillas that she would then vacuum seal...
How Freeride Mountain-Bike Pioneer Tarek Rasouli Returned to the Trails
  My favorite segment in the 2023 film Nothing’s For Free: The History of Freeride Mountain Biking chronicles the improbable comeback story of German cyclist Tarek Rasouli. One of the pioneers of freeride in the mid-nineties, Rasouli suffered a terrifying crash in Whistler, Canada, in 2002 that left him paralyzed from the waist down and reliant on a wheelchair.   The injury...
