Mystery Ranch

Blitz 35L Backpack

Mystery ranch blitz

Size Bought:

40l

I wouldn't know because it was two days late, I had to leave for my trip, so I had to buy another one...backcountry, wouldn't do anything for me, horrible customer service and cost me alot more Money...

Fantastic!

Great pack for what I need! I use it for a daily bag to carry my uniform/gym/change of clothes. I don’t know how well it would be for an every day carry; but for a travel bag/carry on great choice. My only complaint is that some of the straps have a Velcro tie down, while others do not. I would add Velcro “tie downs” to the compartment lid and shoulder straps; no matter what great bag and quality. I also enjoy that you can remove the waist belt when you don’t need it.

Great Well Thought out pack

My first order was lost by Fed Ex and Backcountry replaced it with another. So good on them. The pack is comfortable and well thought out. Day 1 I hiked 15 miles through the Florida swamps. All my gear was easy to access. I could easily sustain myself from this pack

Love it

Love how much I can fit in this backpack. The interior bottle pockets keep my water and coffee bottles secure and the laptop compartment fits (just barely) my 16" 16:10 laptop. My only suggestion would be to consider adding more/better excess strap management. I had to buy clips to keep the straps that didn't come with velcro keepers from flapping around while using the pack on my motorcycle.

Blitz 35 Best bang for your buck

Current active duty military. I purchased this pack 2 months ago, just prior to going to dive school. I used it every day to carry dive gear to and from the training area. The pack was often wet due to the environment. There are other better packs on the market but the quality and capability you get for the price this pack is hard to beat.

Blitz35 Thoughts & Drink Tube Clarification

Construction and Design - Yoke adjuster/stiffener system works, get your size right. [MR does know a thing or two regarding backpack frame design, load transfer and earned industry respect with their Guide Light Frame™ and Terraframe systems] - Durable 500D CORDURA® fabric and Coated YKK® #10 Zippers were a good choice. With thoughtful organization and weather resistant design throughout, the Blitz-35 did accomplish the best of features and versatility, though throttled to meet a price-point. These sum-up to a V-Good weight to function ratio (and price). - The Blitz side panel webbing is suitable for two, 2.7L pouches per side (see photo). - Side (elastic band) pockets diameter capacity - barely impedes interior pack space with 3” or less diameter fuel bottle etc. or kidney shaped canteen. (4” dia. will impede some pack interior space) Blitz-35 the Drink Tube Routing The internal padded, laptop sleeve (with exterior side zipper access) will also serve for a hydration pouch with usable drink tube routing (see photos – think price-point). The packs inside back-panel area also has Loop Velcro panel for customized organization options. What’s a Perfect Pack The Perfect Backpack - is a pack that will meet most of your needs without hindering your performance and yet versatile enough to adapt to changes, enabling you to achieve the goal. That said - there is no 'perfect' backpack - the backpack is a tool which varies according to a place and season, guided by the aforementioned principles. Gear isn’t fashion clothing – gear by choice must perform, endure with you and if needed, assist in saving a life. Happy Trails 70's wilderness explorer, former SAR volunteer

Great EDC Bag

This is my second mystery ranch pack. I’ve been using this pack for a month as my EDC pack and I love it. Here in Indiana the temperature can fluctuate 20 or more degrees in one day, and having the ability to stow all my layers while also being able to collapse the pack down when I need it is a game changer. Another very high quality pack, I’m a happy camper.

Well built

I’ve been using this pack for about 2 months now. It is versatile and well thought out with an abundance of features that are useful for many applications.

Versatile pack

Very versatile pack, top lid design allows the monster 35l TK cinch down easily for smaller profile yet side zippers allow quick access to contents both from back (for laptop) and front (for main). My only complaints are the location of strap around the water bottle pocket…I wish it didn’t go over the pocket. Molle is also unnecessary for me, could have been lesser cuts instead (may also save some weight) waist belt are also too narrow, why not full 2” or 1.5”? I have been using this pack for traveling and liking it quite a lot. It also nailed price point.

Perfect for my job travel

Plenty of room and pockets making it easy to grab and go as required by my job. Comfortable and functional.
