Recently, Osprey launched its first foray into the truly ultralight realm with the introduction of the Levity and Lumina backpacks. These bags are extremely light (less than 2 pounds/.9 kg), but still built to carry a heavy load. In this video, we join hiker Caitlin Quinn, who is relatively new to the ultralight scene, as she puts the new packs to the test in her backyard in the state of Vermont. The clip is a nice intro to the pack of course, but it is also a wonderful look at the excitement we all get when we head out into the outdoors.
