3400 Junction
Starting at $355.00
The versatile 3400 Junction allows you to keep your options open when it comes to packing for a big weekend, multi-day section hikes, thru hikes, or to meet the gear demands of changing seasons and environments. Ideal for weekend, section, or thru hikes where resupply points are less frequent and/or for equipment flexibility. When the extra volume is not in use, the 3400’s top can roll down enough to make the overall size of the pack similar to the 2400, but that additional space can come in pretty handy when you need it.
For hikes measured more by changes in climate zones and geographical features than distance, the Junction offers the ultimate versatility required to meet those demands.

Can't wait for spring!
This pack appears very well made and is super lightweight. I can't wait to get it out on trail this spring.
Does the waterproof job
This is a review with experience, over a year now. I love having a truly waterproof pack. After 40 years of backpacking I left a 6 lb Dana pack for this HMG 3400 at 2 lbs and it is a dream. With newer, lighter gear I can still fit all I need for 3 seasons of the year. Hiked in the Cascades, Tetons and the Andes with it and it still performs like new. I think we're going to have a long, successful relationship.
Believe the Hype
Thoroughly impressed so far. After a couple of week-long hikes in the Ouachitas and Ozarks, I have to say this fabric and overall design is legit. Yes, it's light. But it's also super resilient and seemingly watertight as well. I was skeptical: A white pack that looks like it's made out of Ikea bag material? And I was concerned about the lack of load lifters, but at 6'3", the back stays on the tall I ordered elevate the straps just above my traps and act as permanent lifters. It's a great fit! And after a few muddy days, it's picking up a nice patina. It is seemingly more narrow than a standard 55L, given there are no bulbous side pockets, so I have more range of motion. When fully packed, it is a bit taller and the center of gravity seems a bit higher up, but that's also probably a side-effect of being a 'tall' pack. Hyperlight talks about these packs being ideal for 20lb, 30lb, and maybe 40lb loads but it doesn't seem to have an issue going north of 40lbs either. I love the center strap that goes above the roll-top. The strap is long enough to fill the pack and then rest a bulky thermarest self-inflating on top and still have strap room to compress. The attention to detail is top notch - did you know the sternum strap buckle is a whistle?! If I had to buy it again, I would, but I'd go with the larger 70L, knowing that I have that extra room for bulky bags and packrafts but can roll it down when not needed.
Love this pack!!
I've had my eye on the Junction 3400 for some time. The Junction 3400 fits everything I need with so much room to spare. This thing is so comfortable. The design is perfect for me. I love the durable fabric on the sides combined with the mesh front pocket. Highly recommend this pack. The customer service was great as well. Thank you Hyperlite!
Game Changer
I can not put into words how awesome this pack is. It totally revolutionized my hiking experience. Everyone I talk to I tell them how amazing this pack is. I had to tell myself while hiking the AT with about 30# total that I had a pack on my back. But the pack. Stop wondering and start walking!!
Customer service is also amazing. Thanks Hyperlite.
