Latitude Outdoors, a well-known manufacturer of hunting saddles and associated gear for the hyper-mobile hunter, has expanded its offerings with the introduction of its first saddle-hunting-compatible pack: the Ranger 22. Designed to keep the most on-the-go mobile hunters organized and agile throughout every step of the hunt, the pack boasts customizable storage options and ergonomic comfort.

Ranger 22 Buckled and Open

With features targeted at enhancing overall versatility and endurance, the Ranger 22 pack promises to meet the demands of many hunting seasons and challenges. When navigating thick brush or facing unpredictable weather, it keeps essential gear organized, secure and easily accessible, and even features a pass-through for a hydration bladder. Meanwhile, the removable waist belt allows for simple transition between hauling winter gear and securing lighter loads in the off-season. The Ranger 22’s strap keepers help prevent snags for increased organization, and a pair of ergonomically designed shoulder straps promise to reduce hot spots during warm early-season activity. To add yet another capability, this pack also houses a compression sleeve and side pockets to store sticks, platforms, late season bibs or even a full-size Nalgene. Those side pockets also sport riveted holes that can be used as gear hoists.

Ranger 22 Bottom Straps and Top pocket

“The introduction of the Ranger lineup marks the first pack in our lineup of mobile hunting products,” said Latitude Outdoors co-founder and chief brand officer Alex Chopp. “As active saddle hunters, we realized there was a direct need for a product of this caliber to successfully complete our system. Saddle hunting requires a variety of pieces and the Ranger 22 fills that need to keep hunters confident and organized so they can focus on the hunt.”

Ranger 22 Side Pockets

Additional Features and Specifications:

  • Internal Frame Stays—Aluminum framing to make the pack more rigid; removable for an unstructured fit.
  • Bed Roll Straps—Allows the attachment of an extra hoodie or other layers to the bottom of the pack.
  • Dimensions—11 x 18 x 6 inches
  • Size—22 Liters

I grew up hunting whitetails in the Midwest, and while I thought I was in “elk shape” on my first western hunt, I quickly learned that chasing elk at high elevation requires an entirely different level of fitness. You’ll likely hike for hours, oftentimes at high elevation, and many of trails you’ll follow are filled with deadfall and uneven rocks. If you’re fortunate enough to fill your tag, the real work starts.
