Vermont Backpacking Equipment Rental-Lightweight Backpack For Rent-Burlington Hiking Gear Rentals

Lightweight Backpack rentals in Burlington, VT. These are the lightest packs that they have available for rent, they are ideal when you have a limited amount of gear to carry or have light, compressible gear. However these packs can get uncomfortable with much more than 30 pounds in them, so be aware of what you have to carry before ordering. LowerGear offers high quality tent rentals by MSR, Kelty, Alps Mountaineering, Marmot and Sierra Designs. Big tents for families. Little tents for the weight-conscious ounce-counter. In-between tents for the rest of us. They've got them all. Rent camping and backpacking gear like backpacks, sleeping bags, tents, gps systems and much more in Burlington, Rutland, South Burlington, Barre, Bennington, Essex Junction, Brattleboro, Montpelier, St. Albans, Winooski, and all of Vermont.

Example packs in this series include the Granite Gear Vapor Trail, weighing in at a feathery 2 pounds even, and a Gregory Z55 at about 3 ¼ pounds. Both are in the 3500 cubic inch range, which is adequate as long as you’re taking high quality, compressible gear that is lightweight as well. This is not the type of pack to carry a lot of heavy winter clothes or a big synthetic cold-weather sleeping bag, for example.

These can be good packs for women or kids if there is some lucky guy on the same trip willing to pack more than his share. He could consider renting a high-capacity pack as the family mule.

LowerGear has a wide variety of packs for any type of trip, such as ultralight trekking in the backcountry, two-month adventure across Europe, or for tackling Everest. Pick your pack based on the type of trip you envision taking, how much gear you need to carry, and your torso length.

For the typical weekend or 3-4 day trip carrying gear for yourself, consider one of the Medium Capacity Backpacks. For a week-long trip, or weekender where you're packing a lot of gear and food for yourself and maybe others, one of the Hi Capacity Backpacks will do the trick. They also have some Lightweight Packs for those trips where every ounce counts and Expedition Packs for those that are a little more serious about their backcountry adventure.

They only have lightweight packs made for medium torsos. What’s a torso to a backpack? It’s the length along your spine, starting at the top at your C7 vertebrae - that bone at the base of your neck that sticks out when you bend your head forward. Measure down your spine to a point on your lower back even with those hip bones that stick out and support your spare tire – the iliac crest is what that’s called. It’s tricky to measure yourself, so get a friend with a measuring tape to help you figure it out.
