how small does this pack up? would it be suitable for backpacking?

It fits in about the same size roll as a traditional summer bag. Maybe even a little smaller. I've used mine for long multi day/night hike trips with no issues.

As small as a four season sleeping bag, it just about fits into the bottom zip compartment of a hiking rucksack with a big of determination.

It's very small and light. I don't backpack but I think it packs smaller than a typical sleeping bag.

Folded nicely is can take up the small amount of space as a P&J; sandwich. Suggestion, let the towel dry thoroughly and fold into a small ziplock bag and squeeze out the air. Perfect for backpacking. But, be gentle when opening the towel for the first time, it can rip like paper towel when dry. Pretty durable if you take care of it. Lastly me a whole month backpacking Europe. Hand wash only, my wife made the mistake of putting it in the washer and dryer and it have a good ending. Let me know if you need anything else. -Gil

I think you'll be fine with this pack. It wasn't very big. As for space available, I used it to hike Pikes Peak in Colorado Springs. I filled the bladder and still had room for a spare bottle, extra gloves, and snacks for the day.

It'll definitely fit. And is probably a good pack to get if you are going to want to travel for a while on a slightly smaller pack. I took this backpacking for a 10 weeks and it was great to not have a lot of stuff. Also, the pack is adjustable. You'll be fine.

I would say not too heavy. It is a heavy mil and may require some folding and rolling practice. Would fit flat in a backpack or rolled and on top of a smaller pack (like mine).

I went on a backpacking trip for 4 days with 18-19 KG. ha no problems at all. It holds a lot and has many places to clip outside items on

It's compact, but not ultra compact. It's going to take up a little under 10L of space. It's very easily attachable to the outside of a pack as well. I love it!

Very light and small enough to fold up and put in a backpack. Would be okay for smaller people.

I'm not at home now and can't be specific, but it packs down really, really small. You won't be disappointed with its stuff-size.

It really packs down well. It comes with a compression sack. It ends up being smaller than my ground pad. Great for backpacking.

Its not tiny so it depends on what type of travelling and what you plan on using it for. It will work fine as long as you're not pulling huge amounts of power, ie power tools or large motors. Just depends on how much space you have.

I'm not sure but i wouldnt recomend this as a backpacking bag because the waist support is flimsy and doesnt support much. I got this for my girlfriend but we then returned it and got a larger one from the same company that has better waist support tjat works well.

It packs up to about 18" long and 5" in diameter give or take. I took it on a hunting trip and was able to fit 2 adults our rifles and still had some room leftover inside for clothes and whatnot. Hope this helps

If you're young and strong and on a budget, it would be good. It is larger and heavier than it should be for backpacking. If you're doing a long trip, weight is a concern or you want more room in your pack then it's not ideal.

I do believe it will work well with a back pack. The reason I say this is I used it for a large soft cooler bag to go to the farmers market and purchase what was needed. I am unsure if it has a weight cap on the basket. With what I used it for, it met my needs. I would purchase it again. Works fine for my needs.

most definitely. it's easy to pack.... probably about 12" long and 5" in diameter....

I have backpacked, and wouldn't want to carry this. It's light weight, suitable for backpacking, but the poles fold only in half, which make the package unwieldy to carry. It is very durable and stayed dry in light rain, but I would recommend a small tarp and a good ground cloth for my dogs.
