When you’re fighting wildfires, you need to focus on your job, not your equipment. You need a comfortable, lightweight wildland fire pack like the FS-1 Ranger wildland fire pack that can be customized to meet your needs. With its ergonomic harness system, adjustable hip belt and Dual Action Stabilizer, this modular wildland fire pack is ideal for long shifts in rugged conditions, allowing you to carry everything you need without pain or strain.
Modular:
With the FS-1 Ranger, you can carry as much or as little as you want, choose how to best assemble the pack, and quickly transform the pack with quick-release buckle connections. The pack can also adjust to fit different body types and sizes, suitable for almost anyone on the fire line.
Comfortable:
The pack’s ergonomic harness system is equipped with aluminum stays that provide excellent load support, and its D.A.S. system keeps load weight focused on the hips while stabilizing your balance, providing optimal comfort for long hours on your feet. New for 2010 is the fire shelter case drop-down feature allowing the user to drop-down the fire shelter case to counterbalance weight while digging. When digging is over position the fire shelter case into the upright position for ultimate hiking comfort.

Made from 1000D Cordura, box stitching and reinforced stress points, your FS-1 Ranger pack is made to withstand extraordinary conditions. Backed by our lifetime warranty, we worry about the quality of your equipment, so you don’t have to.

"The FS-1 Ranger pack proved to be a very comfortable/spacious fire pack. After purchasing it last spring I used it on several fires in Nevada, Idaho, Oregon and Montana. The pack was very comfortable in all aspects of those fire assignments. Overall Excellent Pack !!!"

"Dear Coaxsher, Inc.:

My name is Stephen Levitt and I work for the Bureau of Land Management, Carson City District in Reno, Nevada as a Fire Engine Operator.  I recently bought your FS-1 Ranger pack and absolutely love it.  Thank you for the great thought and craftsmanship that went in to the pack.

I am currently going into my 7th season as a wildland firefighter with the BLM.  During my past seasons I have tried fire packs from Thielsen, Nimrod, Eagle Pack and my current Ranger Cougar pack.  All of these packs hang real low and the fire shelter hits my butt when hiking.  I found a way to prevent the fire shelter issue with my Ranger Cougar pack but my arms fall asleep within 30 minutes and the main pack is too small.  Last year I bought a Wolfpack Mack Daddy fire pack but the waist belt was coming unstitched out of the box.  I returned it the next day.

When I saw your FS-1 Ranger pack on the internet it caught my attention instantly.  After receiving the pack, I loaded all my gear into it (40 lbs worth) and adjusted it to what I felt to be the most comfortable fit.  I hiked for an hour out in the hills with it and love how the load was carried.  The fire shelter sits in the perfect spot, there is plenty of room for my gear, the craftsmanship is superb and I didn't feel any pain in my shoulders whatsoever.

-Feel free to use any of what I have written in your reviews.



Sincerely,

Stephen Levitt

Fire Engine Operator, BLM, Reno, NV."
