Backpack Travel

Yeti 35 L backpack

I spent months shopping, ordering, and returning backpacks before deciding on the Yeti 35L pack. At the end of the ordeal my family and friends were sick of hearing about travel bags. 🙂

I needed a pack that was small enough to be a TSA carry-on bag, while being large enough and sturdy enough to support nearly 4 months of travel.

Yeti Crossroads Backpack Put to the Test

This little bag packs quite a punch at $250. It’s clam shell opening, durability, design, accessability, and multi carry positions makes this a must have bag. If you are a civil servant and verified through ID.me you can receive $50 off.

This $30 item is a must-have for clamshell backpacks. It can hold an incredible amount of clothing, shoes, and personal items. It is already formed into the “backpack shape,” so you drop it in, zip it up, and go.

Pack Gear

Each section has a Velcro flap that keeps everything organized and separate. The top has a zipper compartment for loose items. I look at this item like a miniature dresser: undergarments on the top, jeans, and jackets at the bottom, with tops and bottoms in between.

The packing masterpiece holds all my clothes, and I can still fit all the necessary items in my backpack.
