Removable saddlebags, six-point fit, two hydration bladders included - built for when you're both going the distance.
Details
The pack that fits the kitchen sink. Almost.
There are days on the hill where everything clicks. You've got miles ahead, your dog's in their element, and you're both carrying what you need to keep going. The Palisades Pack was built for those days - Ruffwear's highest-volume pack, designed for long routes and multi-day adventures where your dog pulls their weight alongside you.
Moulded and perforated EVA foam panels keep the fit breathable and comfortable across big days. The radial cut, weight-forward saddlebags sit stable against your dog's sides - no bounce, no shifting - and when you stop for the night, they detach completely, leaving a streamlined harness for exploring around camp. Six points of adjustment dial in the fit. Three leash attachment points give you options on technical ground. Reflective trim and a light loop for The Beacon keep you both visible when the light fades.
Two 1-litre collapsible hydration bladders are included. Your dog shouldn't carry more than 25% of their body weight - and if they're new to packs, start light and build up over a few outings.
