A Meridian style pack body has it all; a top loader with a floating lid/fanny pack and a single vertical zipper front access panel that allows for quick access to items at the bottom of your pack. The original concept of this pack was to make it last for Trauma's 10,000 mile trek, so it is bombproof. They have utilized the newly released RiRi water-resistant tooth zippers because they offer superior durability and water resistance to any other zipper seen. Reflective material on the daisy chains and on the shoulder straps ensured that Trauma was seen when road hiking at night.
