ALPS OutdoorZ has released its Covert lumbar pack just in time for the 2021 hunting season.

The Covert pack was developed for comfort and versatility. From big-game to waterfowl hunting and everything in between, the Covert is intended for the light packer who needs only the essentials.
Hip belt of pack
The wide and padded waist belt is fully adjustable and designed to distribute weight around the torso. For cold-weather comfort, the pack can be deployed in front of the torso, to utilize the integrated hand warmer channel between the belt and main compartment.

Covert Main COmpartment

For primary gear storage, the Covert boasts a 8L/500in3 main compartment. To keep gear organized and within easy reach, the top-zippered main compartment includes several storage pockets, which are good for securing knives, lights, back-up batteries, keys, and other small items. For quick-access items, the Covert comes with a small, zippered storage pocket on the left- and right-sides of the waist belt. Additionally, there is a secured storage compartment on the right side of the pack that is perfect for holding a rangefinder, and a water bottle pocket on the opposite side of the pack. A clear smart-phone pocket on the main compartment lid offers safe storage of your mobile device.

Finally, additional lashing points and a dual quick-release buckle-and-strap system provide secure attachment for extra gear or clothing.

Smart Optics 101

Smart optics are changing the way hunters and shooters approach distance, accuracy and confidence in the field.
