  
The Alps Mountaineering Cascade backpack offers the best suspension system and features on the market. The Cascade uses the Comfort Glide Suspension System that has many adjustments points to allow customization for a perfect fit. In addition this innovative backpack has two great features, it has an integrated Rain Cover and the Top Pocket converts to a Fanny Pack. You no longer need to remember to bring your rain cover, because it's now part of your pack, conveniently stored in a pocket at the bottom of your pack. You also don't need to pack an extra fanny pack for your short day hikes because the top pocket removes and converts into a fanny pack.

Why choose an internal frame pack?
They are designed for uneven terrain and narrow trails, where a hiker needs more agility. Balance and stability are essential on uneven, narrow or slippery terrain. An internal frame pack keeps the weight of the load tight against your body, giving you more freedom of movement. If you’re into off-trail adventures, an internal frame pack should be a consideration.
