YETI Cayo Backpack: Rugged Gear for Trail and Travel

With a durable build, adaptable features, and everyday practicality, the Cayo is made for those who split their time between pavement and dirt.

Available in 15L, 25L, and 35L capacities (with the 35L arriving later this summer), the pack offers versatile sizing for everything from short day hikes to long days on the road or trail.

Durable, Weather-Resistant Construction

The Cayo is built to keep your gear protected in tough conditions. It features a DryHide Shell, RF welded seams, and a PU-coated zipper to help shield contents from light rain, mud, and trail wear. While not fully waterproof, it provides solid protection against the elements for most everyday and outdoor use.

Comfortable Fit for All-Day Wear

For long days of movement, the ComfortComb mesh back panel adds breathability and support. Removable chest and waist straps help stabilize heavier loads and offer an adjustable fit, whether you’re navigating a trail, setting up camp, or loading gear at a trailhead.

Organized and Adaptable Storage

Inside, the pack includes stretch-woven pockets for valuables and smaller items, as well as a sleeve that fits up to a 2L hydration reservoir. A separate water-resistant pocket helps keep wet gear or dirty items separated from the rest of your load.

Outside, the Cayo features the HitchPoint™ Grid, allowing for modular attachments like the SideKick Dry Gear Case or Rambler Bottle Sling—ideal for customizing your setup for longer outings or changing conditions.
