Hyperlite Mountain Gear
Southwest 40
$369.00
Description

　　Designed specifically to prevent snags in the rough scrub brush of America’s deserts, the Hyperlite Mountain Gear Southwest 40 differs from the Windrider 40 only in that it replaces the outer mesh pockets with three durable, ripstop Dyneema® Hardline pockets.

　　Use this highly functional and comfortable Hyperlite backpack for day trips, weekend hikes, section hiking or months on the trail where frequent resupply points are available, such as the Appalachian Trail, the Long Trail or the El Camino de Santiago. Made from 100% waterproof Dyneema® Composite Fabrics (formerly Cuben Fiber), the Southwest 40 is highly durable and weatherproof. Use this backpack with Hyperlite Stuff Sacks for a nearly perfect waterproof kit.

　　Formerly known as the 2400 Southwest Pack. Packaging may have either name but the product is identical.

Footprint sold separately.

After a number of internal studies, Hyperlite has decided to remove the metal grommets from the weep holes of their packs. This product may ship with or without the grommet as they are phased out from Hyperlite's inventory.
The grommets were not an essential feature to the weep holes of the pack. Hyperlite has determined there is no physical function of these grommets and they have been merely for aesthetic purposes. Their design and production team has developed a consistent method of precision drilling the holes in the fabric. The heat generated from the friction from this process will seal the edges of the weep holes and eliminate the chance of the fabric fraying. This will now make the holes just as strong as when constructed with grommets.

The Gear Our Editors Loved in January
　　We sought out warmer weather in Arizona, climbed freezing pitches in northern New Mexico, and ski-toured in Rocky Mountain National Park this January. Heres the gear that helped us start the year out right. 　　Eastpak Transverz suitcase ($140) I gifted this to my brother for Christmas, after traveling with him to Japan and feeling sorry to see him hoofing it...
Do Couples That Ski Together Stay Together?
　　Adventures can provide fuel for romance, but only if you know how to take what you learned in the mountains back home. Just ask Paddy O’Connell. Paddy loves two things: fresh pow, and his wife, Carly. On their one-year wedding anniversary, the cutest couple in all of the outdoors ventured to Portillo, Chile to contemplate their affection for skiing and...
Did Surfline Revolutionize the Sport or Kill a Part of Its Renegade Soul?
　　Greg Long had it on good authority that a wave bigger than any hed ridden at Mexico’s Islas Todos Santos could arrive between 10:20 and 10:40 A.M. on January 6, 2023. The 40-year-old had been chasing swells down to the islands in northern Baja since he was a teenager in the 1990s, planning his trips using the crude surf forecasting...
Can Golf Be an Endurance Sport?
　　How do you make the best of a golf addiction? Add running. That’s the formula contributor Alex Ward tried to perfect a few months ago, when he started figuring out a way to turn his rounds of golf into real exercise. Would golf be an endurance sport if he played sunrise to sunset? What if he wore running gear, carried...
The Best Sports Bras of 2024
　　Sports bras are like brakes on a vehicle: no one gets excited about using them, but they’re absolutely necessary. We found a few that we actually enjoy wearing for their combination of comfort and versatile support. 　　The Winners at a Glance Best for Carrying a Phone on the Run: Oiselle Flyout Bra Best Adjustable Fit: Patagonia Maipo Low Impact Adjustable...
Six Overalls for Every Adventure You Can Possibly Imagine
　　Say it with me: pants are boring. Why wear two pieces when you can roll your whole outfit into one? I’ll admit I was once an overall skeptic—I don’t love the way workwear has become trendy lately. But what may present as an obnoxious lifestyle trend can be surprisingly practical (not to mention make life more fun). Ranging from impressively...
Why You Should Install a Composting Toilet in Your Camper
　　I want to paint a picture for you, and it’s not a pretty one. It’s 30 degrees, and lightly snowing with a crisp, 15-mile-per-hour wind blowing in my face. For the last hour, I’ve been kneeling next to my Airstream holding a hair dryer, trying fruitlessly to thaw the black tank dump valve, which had frozen overnight. 　　This was a...
My New Splitboard Sometimes Frightens and Frustrates Me—That’s One Reason I Love It
　　It is fairly terrifying to trust a strip of fuzzy fabric to keep you from careening backwards down a steep, snowy ski hill while trying to climb up it. That fuzz’s friction is all I could think about the first time I splitboarded up Steamboat, Colorado’s blue runs at seven a.m. while my family was still nestled in their beds...
Colorado’s I
　　Originally, I had a vision. It involved getting into a car with strangers. 　　The idea struck me a few weeks before I left for Colorado, where I was going to report on the state’s notorious Interstate 70 traffic. Each winter, I-70 makes headlines and stymies skiers attempting to drive from Denver and the urban Front Range to the dozen or...
The Best Quilt for Overlanding Doesn’t Sacrifice Comfort for Performance
　　Most quilts designed for the outdoors are created to be used as either throw blankets, or seriously ultralight insulation for backpacking. The former prioritize low prices over performance, while the latter sacrifice versatility in order to save a few ounces. But the traditional sleeping bag also brings limitations, mostly to your ability to spread out, get comfortable, and share a...
Why Outdoor Gear from the 1990s Is Coming Back into Style 
　　Today, I’m a 42-year-old dad with four kids. I work a 9-5 job, ski on the weekends, camp in the summer, drive a Tacoma…you get the picture. I’m essentially a cliched version of the middle-class outdoorsy American who’s floating along with the bunch. 　　But I promise I was much cooler when I was in my teens in the 1990s. I...
Why People in Sweden Do Nature Right
　　Back in the 1980s, my left-leaning dad used to joke at the dinner table that if a certain right-leaning President were re-elected, we would be moving to Sweden. In his mind, the country of his forebears was an egalitarian society of hale and hearty outdoor people who lived among nature and cared deeply about the welfare of others. My dad...
