Are you planning on going for a hiking or camping trip? If yes, then you will be doing a lot of walking and climbing to get to the perfect spot. You will also, in all probability, move from one spot to another if the trip is going to be a long drawn-out one. In this case you will want to ensure that your camping backpack is as light as you can possibly make it. You can ensure in two ways. Firstly, get yourself a light aluminum frame backpack, and lastly, do not stuff the pack with items you can do without."
