The TETON Sports Grand 5500 is a large capacity internal frame backpack, developed by other rugged backpackers, that meets the demands of your longest and most extreme adventures. It can adequately carry all the backpacking gear you need for weeks in the backcountry.

Aluminum stays provide strength and support right where you need it. The dual waist belt has wishbone construction to sit comfortably on your hips. A thickly padded lumbar area provides exceptional lower back comfort. Other comfort features include thick shoulder pads and air channels along your back to maximize air circulation. The Grand 5500 is also hydration compatible with an integrated Velcro hang tab for easily hanging your hydration bladder. Room enough for a large 3-Liter bladder. Bonus features include: An exterior zippered pouch that doubles as a removable 3-Liter day pack; two mesh pockets to fit water bottles or other items requiring easy accessibility; multiple side compression straps, and an upper compression strap that help keep gear cinched tight to reduce pack shift.
