The opinion of Aventure Nordique
The Mariposa 60 Backpack by Gossamer is an ultralight backpack with a metal frame, designed for minimalist hikers. Its volume consists of a 36-liter main compartment with a hood that adapts to the capacity of the backpack, as well as pockets and mesh adding 24 liters:
- 1 zippered pocket at the top
- 3 side pockets
