The Osprey Ariel 65 is meant to be a sort of a tribute to women mountaineers, backpackers and trekkers. Yes, this backpack is specially meant for use by women! Finally, Osprey has had the sense to realize that it is not only the men who go on weekend adventure trips with their male buddies, women do too! Does the Osprey Ariel 65 live up to the expectations of thousands of women adventurers? Read on to find out!
Trekking, multiday- alpine traverses, weekend mountaineering trips, grand round trekking trips - whatever you call them, the Osprey Ariel 65 is a great investment for all of them! For women who found it difficult to carry loads on trekking trips, the Osprey Ariel 65 comes as good news as it has a women- specific design. The custom- fit options created especially to suit women, the state- of- the- art durable building materials and light weight all recommend it. And what's more, the Osprey Ariel 65 is surprisingly inexpensive!
This backpack is the perfect size for your adventures. With a weight of 5 lb 2 oz, it is not really the lightest backpack in the market, but who ever said that women traveled light, eh? The Osprey Ariel 65 also comes in a lighter version, weighing just 4 lb 11 oz. The frame of the backpack is made of new Osprey LightWire technology and it comes with an Osprey AddOn Compatible Stow-on-the- Go trekking pole attachment, which makes it ideal for women trekkers. The top pocket is convertible and the lumbar pack hydration makes it suitable or long, sweaty treks.
Osprey seems to have paid notice to the fact that a lot of women suffer from bad or delicate backs. The Osprey 65 is designed in a way so as to make the load in it stay as close to the back as possible. This keeps back pain away making the journey full of adventure, not discomfort!
Okay, enough of the pros of Osprey 65. What does it lack? Well, the hip belt makes one question whether it will hold up heavy loads. This may be an issue if you are travelling in winter when your load automatically goes up. But it is perfect for the summer months since you will be travelling light anyway.
Overall, the Osprey Ariel 65 can be recommended as a good backpack that takes care of the basics women trekkers look for.
