Montane Women's Trailblazer 24 (2024)

The women's Trailblazer 24 sits between the smaller Trailblazer 16 and the larger unisex models — at 24 litres and 835 g, it offers more room for a full day out while sticking with a frameless, contact-padded back panel, which makes even loading important given the 9 kg rated capacity. The adjustable back length (38–48 cm) is a step up from the Trailblazer 16, which has no back-length adjustment at all. Materials match the rest of the women's line: recycled RAPTOR Cross Lite 70D nylon on the body, a tougher recycled 210D nylon base, both with PFC-free DWR. The main compartment opens via top lid and drawstring, front and side mesh pockets keep small items handy, T-Hook attachments hold trekking poles, and side compression straps cinch volume when the pack isn't full. Montane lists day hiking as the primary intended use rather than multi-day trekking — a narrower scope than the similarly sized unisex Trailblazer 25, which is rated for both.
