Gossamer Gear Murmur

The Murmur 36 is designed for ultralight setups, typically under 15-20 pounds. Because it lacks a rigid frame, you will need to pack it carefully, using your sleeping pad or folded clothing against the back panel to create structure and comfort.

The fabric itself is waterproof and highly durable, but the pack is not technically seam-sealed. While it will keep your gear dry in light rain, we recommend using a pack liner or dry bags for your critical items during heavy or prolonged downpours.

No, the Murmur 36 does not include a hip belt by default to keep the weight at a minimal 7.9 ounces. It is designed to carry primarily on your shoulders, though it is compatible with optional hip belts if you prefer extra stability.

Yes, the pack is hydration compatible. You can easily route your hose through the designated ports, though you will need to ensure your bladder is positioned securely inside the main compartment.

Yes, its dimensions and lightweight, frameless design make it an excellent carry-on option. It easily fits into overhead bins and can be compressed down further if it isn't fully packed.

The torso pad provides essential structure to the back panel, preventing gear from poking into your back while adding a layer of cushioning. You can remove it to save weight or use it as a sit pad during breaks on the trail.
