Backcountry Exposure Mesa Food Bag 4.5L
The Mesa Food Bag is our best selling food bag, and here's why. This 4.5 liter capacity bag is designed to carry 1-4 days worth of food, which makes it ideal for the backpacker focused on weekend trips. Big enough for two to four freeze dried meals from the popular meal companies you love like Trail Goods Co, Pinnacle Foods, Peak Refuel and more. You'll have space left over for snacks, lunch food, and drink mixes. All in a zippered bag that's shaped to fit into your backpack without wasting space.
Made from durable, recycled fabrics, the Mesa Food Bag works around the idea of, less is more. Often food bags are a bit large for weekend trips, and the Mesa Food Bag gives you the ideal space for those shorter trips.
Hikers love the simplicity of placing the bag on the ground, opening the large zipper and having easy access to food inside with the wide opening of the bag.

What Fabric Should I Choose?
Not sure which fabric to choose from the available options? Here's a quick guide on the differences.
If weight of the bag is your biggest concern, then Ultra TX70 and UltraGrid will be your best option. If a bag with more structure and "body" is what you're wanting, then X-Pac RX15 and RX30 would be a better choice.
Challenge Outdoor UltraGrid, UltraWeave & Ultra TX70:
A solid, lightweight and super strong fabric. UltraGrid is a 100% recycled nylon that's 210D and features a double Ultra fiber ripstop that makes it incredibly strong, and nearly impossible to rip. At 146 gsm, it's a touch heavier than Ultra TX, but offers more color options. UltraGrid is a single layer, woven fabric. It's a Backcountry Exposure favorite.
The ultralight hiker go to. Ultra TX70 is a 3 layer laminate with a 70D polyester ripstop face fabric, crossply ultra fiber and PET film that can be seam taped. It's lighter weight at 99 gsm and is ideal for when grams count.
For maximum durability the UltraWeave 400X fabric is excellent. UltraWeave is also laminated and features the strong Ultra fiber that's highly abrasion resistant while also being lightweight.
