The Gossamer Gear Gorilla 50 is a megaversatile, ultralight backpack crafted for thru-hikers and minimalist adventurers who demand performance without the weight. At just 32 oz (medium size), this 50-liter pack blends featherlight design with rugged durability, using PFAS-free 70D and 100D recycled Robic nylon to withstand tough trails while keeping sustainability in mind.

Engineered for comfort, the Gorilla 50 features the signature PVT Frame+Belt system, with a closed-shape aluminum frame and pivoting hipbelt that syncs with your natural gait for all-day ease. The S-curve harness and redesigned load lifters ensure even weight distribution, comfortably supporting loads up to 25 lbs. A removable SitLight foam pad doubles as a camp seat, shaving ounces without sacrificing utility.

Storage is a standout with ample external pockets: a large front stretch-mesh pocket for wet gear or quick-access items, two spacious side pockets for water bottles or tent poles, and dual zippered hipbelt pockets for snacks or electronics. The 32L main compartment fits a BV500 bear canister vertically or a BV475 horizontally, with an 18L extension collar adding 10L for extra gear. The unique fold-over lid with a zippered pocket keeps essentials like maps or headlamps handy.

While not waterproof, the Robic nylon resists light rain, and drainage holes in the side pockets prevent water buildup. For wet conditions, use a pack liner. With its lightweight build, thoughtful organization, and customizable fit, the Gorilla 50 is ideal for multi-day treks and minimalist missions.
