Catalyst Backpack

The Catalyst remains our tried and true workhorse of the ULA Pack line. If you head out on a National Scenic Trail, the chance of running into someone with a Catalyst on their back is pretty high. As such, the Catalyst is a great choice for multi-month treks, winter travels, or for folks transitioning down from monster packs into lighter loads. In 2011 we swapped new materials for both side pockets and the logo panel. The side pockets are now 210 ripstop nylon which is tougher, lighter, and more snag resistant for any rambling adventure. The logo panel is now Cordura - super durable and abrasive resistant. | Standard Features- Removable: * Hydration Sleeve (~1.4 oz) * Internal Mesh Pocket (~1.1 oz) * Water Bottle Holsters (~0.8 oz) * Handloops (~0.8 oz); Integrated: * Internal Frame * Twin Stay Framesheet * Contoured Shoulder Straps * Front Shock Cord * Front Mesh Pocket * Dual Hipbelt Pockets * Adjustable/Bellowed Side Pockets * Rolltop Closure * Side/Top Compression Straps * Ice Axe/Pole Retention Loops * Bear Canister Capable * Dyneema Gridstop | Specifications- General Guidelines: * Rec'd Max Load: 40 lbs or less * Rec'd Base Weight: 20 lbs or less * Weight* (Torso-M, Hipbelt-M): 47 oz /* excludes removable components/ | Volume Breakdown * Main Body: 2,600 * Front Mesh Pocket: 600 * Side Mesh Pocket: 350 ea * Ext.
