Product Highlights
Updated for 2009! A trusted backcountry workhorse, the voluminous Kelty Red Cloud 6650 is an excellent balance of performance, durability and affordability. Heavy-hauling load capability, convenient access points and an array of features combine to equip the Red Cloud 6650 for extended backpacking trips.
Equipped with an adjustable Cloudlock II suspension system, the Red Cloud 6650 relies on twin lightweight aluminum stays, a horizontal anti-barreling stay and an HDPE framesheet for reliable support. This design provides stability and load-bearing strength while avoiding the unwieldy rigidity of external frame packs. A contoured, dual-density waistbelt offers comfortable load support. Kelty's patented Scherer Cinch uses a pulley-like system to double the tightening force on the waistbelt, ensuring that the brunt of the pack's weight rests on your hips.
The Red Cloud 6650's anatomically curved and padded shoulder straps can be quickly and easily adjusted to accommodate torso lengths ranging from 16" to 22". Load lifter straps relieve stress on your shoulders and an adjustable sternum strap positions the shoulder straps across the chest to prevent chafing under the arms and on the shoulders. Side compression straps secure the contents of the Red Cloud 6650 for optimal balance and load distribution. An integrated spindrift collar and height-adjustable top lid allow you to carry even more gear and further aid in securing the Red Cloud 6650’s contents.
The pack body of the Red Cloud 6650 consists of a large top-loading main compartment and a lower compartment that is designed to accommodate backpacking-style sleeping bags. A zippered front panel offers additional quick access to your gear from the front of the pack. The lid of the Red Cloud 6650 can be removed entirely for use as a lumbar pack. A large pocket located on the front panel provides internal organizational options.
Additional features include zippered side pockets, a daisy-chain attachment system, a carry handle, ice-axe loops and dual mesh water bottle pockets. A lined interior pocket and built-in tube exit make the Red Cloud 6650 hydration compatible.
The Kelty Red Cloud 6650 is available in a Blood Red/Gray color scheme.
