NEW HAVEN, Mo. – ALPS OutdoorZ, premiere manufacturer of extreme-duty hunting packs and outdoor gear, grows its lineup of Elite series multi-day pack systems with two new models that extend applications on both ends of the wilderness pack spectrum via two new pack sizes: 5800 and 700 cubic inches.
For 2024, the Elite system is now offered in a robust 5800 cubic-inch capacity. The Elite 5800 was developed for hunters and wilderness trekkers who require high-quantity gear and supplies for multi-day backcountry trips. Built with the same lightweight 500D nylon Cordura as found in the original Elite packs, the Elite 5800 boasts all the features that have earned the Elite Pack and Frame series the 2022 Editor’s Choice Award from Petersen’s Hunting and the 2023 Golden Bullseye award from NRA Publications’ American Hunter.
The full-access main compartment makes gear retrieval easy when the pack is loaded, while multiple interior and exterior pockets provide quick access to the most needed items. An integrated, highly adjustable lashing system secures exterior gear and ensures a tight, compressed load to improve balance and weight management. The pack also provides an oversized, integrated spotting scope pocket designed to fit optics with 85mm objectives. Additionally, the pack is removable, so the frame can be used as a stand-alone meat hauler. The Elite Frame covers torso ranges from 14 to 20 inches, and the 5800-pack bag with spin drift fully unrolled measures 39” H x 15” W X 12” D and has a maximum capacity of 6500 cubic inches.
Working with all Elite frames and packs is another new-for-2024 product—the Elite 700 pack. This ultra-light “add-on” pack is designed for minimal gear requirements when any Elite pack frame serves as the primary for meat hauling (such as day trips when it may be necessary to haul out game) or as a secondary pack for extra gear (when secured to any Elite pack). Made of the same 500D Nylon Cordura as all Elite-series packs, the Elite 700 is hydration compatible, has a 700 in3 capacity, and measures 20″ H x 6″ W x 6″ D.
