Talus 50

 

REI’s Talus 50 is an internal frame backpack, larger than the REI Talus 35, adequate for weeklong trips. It loads from either the top, through a drawstring with an expansion collar, or from the side through a zipper which runs the length of the backpack. The drawstring at the top is covered with a removable, dual compartment, floatable pouch.
