Just got my ULA Circuit Backpack!


I just received my new hiking backpack in the mail yesterday! I hiked my first 1,000 miles of the Appalachian Trail with a Go Lite Jam2 backpack, but it has seen better days, so I decided to buy an ULA Circuit for the next 1200 miles.

California Joe and Yeti both hiked with ULA backpacks and loved them, so I decided to give them a try! The one thing I really love about this pack is that they have built in zipper pockets on the waist belt for easy access to snacks or you camera!

Anyhoo...getting excited about my upcoming 2 week hike through Maryland and Pennsylvania in October...just 2 months away!

Enjoy,
Shepherd.

2 things shep,

first, let me know how this pack works out. I too have been looking at a few different models, I realized in New Zealand that my Jam just wasn't doing it for me anymore too. In my hours of googling, I did read a lot of positive things about the ULA packs.

also, let me know when you'll be around Duncannon in October....
