How to Fit a Backpack Perfectly

The mountains are calling! You've got your trial mix ready to go, your boots are broken in, your water is locked and loaded...but what about your backpack? A poor fitting backpack can ruin a perfect day on the trails. Eric from Mountain Equipment Coop in Toronto shows us how to adjust the backpack so it fits perfectly. He demonstrates where it should sit on your hips, how far from your shoulders it should hang and just how snug it should be. Once you have a backpack that fits comfortably, there'll be nothing stopping you. Look out world - backpacker coming through! A special thanks to Eric and model Dale for all of the tips. See you on the trails. Music Credit: See You Later - by Pitx http://ccmixter.org/files/Pitx/17154
