The Osprey Aura AG 50 Backpack is a women's specific backpack perfect for long hiking trips. Its anti-gravity suspension system provides ventilation and comfort, while the adjustable harness and hipbelt ensure a perfect fit. The backpack is equipped with a removable lid, stow-on-the-go trekking pole attachment, hydration compatibility, and ample pockets for organization. However, its weight of 4lbs 3oz makes it not the lightest option available.
