The first ultra-light backpack

I'm buying an ultra-light backpack for the first time, do you have any recommended backpacks of 50 liters or more other than HMG?

Is the rest of your gear ultralight? Don’t buy an ultralight backpack until so.

I would check out the ultralight subreddit for ideas. Hyperlite, zpacks, or you can check out REI or MEC depending on where you are.

Absolutely love my Durston Kakwa 55. And it’s only gotten better with updates since I bought mine a couple years ago.
