fly fishing boat bag patagonia Stealth Switch Pack 5L Patagonia Great Divider 26L Boat

I almost bought the 36L bag, but the 46L is more versatile because I can compress it down just as small, and stuff it full when necessary

Our 2025-2026 testing cycle involved a fleet of veteran thru-hikers logging over 500 combined trail miles

My realistic 2L loadout (aka the reason I sized up): Phone Wallet (even a slightly thicker one) Keys / key fob Wipes (this is huge if Im out with kids) Snacks (like fruit snacks or small packs) Hand cream or lotion Hand sanitizer Small beauty items (lip gloss, mini perfume, etc.) Extra small pouch (for random things so the bag doesnt turn into chaos) And yes it can even handle those emergency mom items that nobody talks about until you need them

If Im throwing another daypack inside my luggage, I prefer to have one that is easily compressed

That said, the Nano Puff features a DWR finish, inside and out, and raindrops beaded up nicely for a little while when I took it out in a modest rain
