Granite Gear likes to bring military packs to OR that show capability and that’s the case with this variant of the Chief Patrol. It’s a bit slimmed down and in addition to the standard roll top with antenna and radio cable slits, this 40 liter pack incorporates a panel to access the load.
Here you can see the zippered water bladder pouches that accommodate 100 oz bladders.
And finally, you can see the Chief suspension.
