Introducing Coaxsher’s FS-1 Ranger
Get ready for Wildland season with a highly-customizable pack. Each module that makes up the Ranger can be removed, giving you the freedom to carry as much or as little as you want. The right features in the right place make gear organization a breeze. The ergonomic suspension harness provides all-day comfort with its high-quality padding and aluminum stays, which allow custom fitting to individual torso curves. With an upright carrying position, hiking without that annoying fire shelter hanging low is now possible. Designed to adjust for short/tall & narrow/wide people, this pack can adapt for almost any person or activity. Call Coaxsher at 1.800.440.3098 or visit online at www.coaxsher.com.
