JOURNEY BACKPACK
One word comes to mind when we think about complications and problems that waterfowl hunters face: Water. We know that at some point either before, after or during the hunt, your gear could potentially and most likely will encounter water. We wanted to provide a solution to this problem. The end goal of The Journey Backpack was to create a bag, specifically for waterfowl hunters, that would provide maximum protection from water and the elements. We set out to develop a piece of gear that could without a doubt withstand the element of water, even if it was completely submerged... The result was a durable, 100% submersible backpack that features our signature customizable, adjustable integrated shelving system, integrated tree straps, and completely waterproof TIZIP® zippers. This is The Journey Backpack.
100% waterproof/submersible TIZIP® Zippers keep out any and all moisture and keeps your gear 100% dry and protected. Constructed with an integrated, adjustable shelving system. This shelving system is 100% customizable and removable. It allows you to customize your setup and arrange your gear in a systematic way that best suits your gear. Like all of our bags and backpacks, the Journey Bag is designed with adjustable tree straps and a waist band strap that allow you to suspend the bag above the ground or the water. However, unlike the other bags, we did not use the hideaway zipper pockets for the straps. This bag is heat welded, therefore, we made the tree straps and waist belt 100% removable, giving you the ability to remove them when not in use. Built with heat welded technology, the heat welded seams keep you gear 100% dry and protected from all moisture and the removes the risk of seam failure causing by stitching. A padded back panel provides comfort during the journey to and from the destination. Neo-grip® lined, padded shoulder straps provide maximum comfort as you trek to to your destination. A small exterior storage pocket with 100% waterproof TIZIP® zipper provides additional storage for smaller gear. Two alt- grip carry handles, located at the top and side of the bag, provide a place to quickly grab or move the bag when it's time to make a move or relocate your setup. A hypalon base provides protection and additional grip, allowing the bag to sit on the base of the bag in the boat or blind without sliding around. Available in the Rusa Outdoors signature "Umber" solid brown color.

Although built to be 100% waterproof/submersible, this bag is not meant to be forced/stored under water.
To ensure waterproof protection, be sure to pull the zipper pull until it is completely locked into the airtight locking system at the end of the zipper.
This bag features two small straps on the interior of the bag. These straps connect the lid to the main body. They can be disconnected by the small buckles located at the ends of the straps, however, to ensure proper weight distribution and to ensure the lid/zipper does not take on too much weight, the clips should remain buckled any time the lid is unzipped. If left unbuckled while the bag is unzipped, the zipper/zipper track could experience an overload of weight and result in damage.
