FS: Deuter ACT Zero 50+15 backpack
FS: Deuter ACT Zero 50+15 backpack. This is the 2012 version, it was used for a couple weeks on the AT and FT. Excellent condition, no rips or tears, I added a GG beltpocket to one side with Velcro strips, and cutoff the iceaxe loops off the bottom. Sells for $185 new at REI. Selling for $90, plus shipping CONUS. PM me if you want to see a picture or have questions. This is an excellent pack, only reason I'm selling is I went and bought the 2013 version, and now have extra backpacks. I also have the 2009 version of the Deuter ACT Zero 60 pack I'm willing to sell for $80. That pack was Backpacker Magazine's Editors Choice award that year. The Deuter ACT Zero 50 + 15 pack is perfect for the thru-hiker who travels light and fast and carry all your necessities in comfort.
