Quality over ounces!

Review by Mike (Mozzie) Review by Mike (Mozzie) I recently used the Mystery Ranch Radix Series pack on the Oregon/Washington portion of the PCT, covering nearly 1,000 miles. My initial review was not based on actual usage, but I stand by much of what I originally said. Many straps are excessively long, and a roll top with the brain would be a fantastic addition. Having spent considerable time buying and using ultralight packs, I own a Granite Gear Blaze 60, Outdoor Vitals Shadowlight, and a couple of lightweight Gregory packs. I’ve also completed many long-distance trails. When Mystery Ranch released the Radix Series, I jumped at the chance to try one, despite its heavier weight. The waist belt pockets were excellent, and the zippers worked smoothly throughout the trip. However, I found the side pockets for holding a Nalgene-type water bottle inconvenient, as I always had to remove the pack to access the bottle. I didn’t use the hydration sleeve because it’s too difficult to keep a bladder clean on a long hike. Once I got the pack dialed in, it was very comfortable. Even on resupply days when I added 8-10 lbs of food or had a long water carry, the pack’s performance remained consistent. I did encounter an issue with one of the fasteners that held the top on. It wouldn’t hold, and when it slipped, it threw the pack off balance. I ended up tying the strap to prevent it from slipping. Overall, this pack is excellent—rugged and showing very little wear even after taking falls. I highly recommend it for anyone who values quality and isn’t obsessed with ounces. PS: I carried between 29 and 35 lbs depending on the number of days between resupply.

What I expected from Dana.
11 months ago
This new pack replaces my Dana Design Terraplane bought in 1995. I just took it out on a 3 day trip in SW Colorado and am very pleased with this pack. The craftsmanship is excellent, which is expected from Dana. But, what I love are the outside pockets. These 3 pockets are roomy but can be cinched down to nothing if you don't need them. Also, the pack has a multitude of features that can shed weight if that is important to you. All of the straps, waist belt, and top pocket are removable. What is most important to me is the comfort and this pack is as comfortable and adjustable as my old terraplane. This pack distributes the weight evenly and allows the user to move weight from hips to shoulders while hiking.

Hip belt slipping down
5 months ago
Hiked 20 miles in Olympic NP with this pack. The hip belt would slide off my iliac crest way more often than on my other mystery ranch packs. I think to cut weight on the pack the hip belt wings are smaller in height, resulting in less surface area to hold on to your hips and get that locked in feeling. To be far. I had to carry someone else’s bear canister plus mine in an already fully loaded pack. Everything else about this pack is great. If this pack had the endurance yoke like the Bridger series packs, it would be a juggernaut.

Love it!

After trying out many different packs (Osprey Atmos AG 65, Osprey Aether 65, Gregory Baltoro 65, Terraframe 3-Zip 50), the Radix 57 was the one that fit and felt the best for my body. Some people reported that the padding isn't enough for the Radix but for me, it's just perfect. I didn't like the thick padding like on the Atmos AG, etc.. it just felt "too much". The Radix also has just the perfect amount of loops and whatnot while still maintaining a "minimal" feel to it.

I purchased this for my son who is preparing for a backpacking trip, and so far, we, as a family, are all very impressed with the quality of the materials used, the fit as well as the overall, very thoughtful, very intelligent design/construction. We're also sensitive to chemicals, and I'm happy to report that this pack is ideal in that way, too. Nothing noxious about it - whatsoever.

Great pack
1 year ago
Feels lighter than it is when fully loaded, as MR packs usually do. The adjustability is great which also helps make the pack so comfortable. Perfect pack for the weight conscious backpacker not looking to go ultralight, it really shines between 20-35 lbs load carry and can easily handle loads up to at least 45 pounds. And the price is at least as good as any of the competitors.

Awesome Pack

Bought this for my husband, he wanted the capacity but not to heavy of a pack. Rides well and is very comfortable, handles loads and distributes weight. Unfortunately, we had to order it from another website because REI wanted to charge a $30 over size shipping fee, even if you're a member.

Very comfortable pack, lightweight but still able to handle a good load. I particularly appreciate the fact it has a brain. It’s not commun for lightweight packs.
