Mountain Equipment Co-op (MEC) Genie 30 DSL

Brand: Mountain Equipment Co-op (MEC)

Model: Genie 30 DSL

Existing modelThis streamlined summit pack has few frills to begin with – and most of those can be stripped away to fine-tune it for a peak attempt. The base weight’s a feathery 661 grams; ditch everything that’s meant to come off and you’re down to a barely perceptible 465 grams.
