CLEARANCE - ALL SALES FINAL Score a deal on a super backpack; the Hyperlite Mountain Gear Windrider 40L is perfect for shorter trips or for those with dialed in ultralight gear. It's also a great day pack for peak-bagging where you need to carry snacks and several layers that you can add and subtract throughout the day. These HMG 40L Windrider Backpacks wont last long at this price! There’s a kind of classic image that comes to mind when you hear the word “hiking.” Dense green and brown forests with meandering rugged root-strewn trails lead to awe-inspiring hill and mountain panoramas, and rivers and streams lull tired explorers to sleep at the end or strenuous but rewarding days. Backpackers and Thru Hikers that can’t get enough of this stuff will find no better friend than the Windrider. The 40L volume size is ideal for weekend or section hikes where frequent resupply points are available. The ultralight central vessel of the Windrider is constructed with 100% waterproof Dyneema® Composite Fabrics. The external mesh pockets provide ample room for the equipment you’ll want access to without having to open your pack and dig, and they’re great for drying out wet clothing as you go.

We recommend the following to determine yours: Tilt your head slightly forward to locate the bony bump at the base of your neck. (This is your 7th cervical (or C7) vertebra). Using a flexible tape measure, have someone measure starting at that spot and running down along the curve of your spine. Place your hands on your hips so you can feel your iliac crest, which serves as the “shelf” of your pelvic girdle. (It’s the first hard thing you feel when you run your fingers down from the sides of your ribcage.) Position your hands so your thumbs are reaching behind you. Have your friend finish measuring at the point where the tape crosses an imaginary line drawn between your thumbs. This distance is your torso length. Small (15.0” - 17.0” torso) Medium (17.0” - 19.0” torso) Large (19.0” - 21.0” torso) Tall (21.0”+ torso) If your measurement falls right in between sizes (for example, if you have a 17.0” torso, so you are right on the line between a Small and a Medium), we suggest you choose the larger torso size.
