4.0 out of 5 stars Decent pack for mid-entry level hiking June 16, 2007

By Rowe Rowe

Color Name:Hunter Green|Amazon Verified Purchase

this pack is overall a good quality pack. It has tons of pockets and loops to hook many things on. I have walkies, knives, shoes and much more dangling from mine.

It's lightweight and the pack has lots of customization options. If you are a large person (6' 0" and up) this pack can conform to you!

I like the options, including the sleeping bag pouch. My sleeping bag barely fit though...It was a challenge to stuff my bag and get it zipped, let me tell you! Afterwards, I was able to place a tent, 4 days of food and clothes, a stove, lantern, pillow, pad, cups, walkies and so much more. Fully loaded for a summer hike kept me <29lbs!

This pack is very comfortable as well. The padding is very generous and again, the adjustment options are plenty! I felt very balanced when wearing this pack and I feel it will last for many years when I examined the stitching and build quality.

The only reason I am not giving it 5 stars is that I specifically purchased this pack because it had a hydration pouch. Reading the instructions, it was very difficult to determine where exactly my pack was supposed to go. It's not very clear and when I finally figured it out, it was illogical because the pouch location is between your back and your load. For me, this was bad because I placed my pouch in there, filled it and tried on the pack. It was very uncomfortable having water sloshing between me and the pack. I did not have a very confident feeling when the pack was not on my back. Also, it created tremendous pressure on my system, so when I went to take a drink, I was flooded every time. I ended up placing the hydration pack on the outside vestibule which worked just fine.

Overall, this is great and I recommend this pack. Good luck with the hydration though. Perhaps that is where it is supposed to go, but it didn't seem normal to me.

5.0 out of 5 stars This really deserves a 4.5 star . . . still very happy with it. May 21, 2009

I am female, 5'6", and bought this as a replacement for my last pack. For the price, this was a better purchase than my 200-some-odd-dollar old pack. I travel for long periods at a time and needed something that could carry all my gear. The quality of the pack amazed me and it has all the buckles and pockets I could ask for. I easily fit my sleeping bag, tent, camera, tools, and a week's worth of clothes into the pack. *Please note* - I pack very light by male and female standards.

The sleeping bag pocket is definitely made for a legit 'backpacking' bag. You probably won't be about to fit something that you pick up at Target for $20. With the my backpacking sleeping bag, I was also able to squeeze a mallet and tent stakes in with it. If you do have a standard 30-40 degree bag, try putting it in from the top. There is a zipper at the very bottom of the pack that I almost missed while exploring my new toy.

Actually, the only reason this pack warrants the half star is that this pack is not made for girls. Sorry ladies. The adjustable torso is a great feature and gives great back support for me at my height, but no matter what I did, the little chest buckle would not fit comfortably across my female chest. I just have to leave is off and this does cause a shift in the weight of the bag. It is something that I can deal with, but it is defiantly something to think about before purchasing - especially if you are just starting out and not used to carrying a loaded pack.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great pack for a small woman September 14, 2009

By Rosebud

Color Name:Mecca Orange|Amazon Verified Purchase

I'M 4'11". I have big problems finding packs that are comfortable for me. I carried this pack for two weeks through Guatemala, where wheeled luggage isn't a good option.

The pack work excellently. I carried 26 - 36 lbs, depending on how much liquid I was packing. The shoulder straps are very easily adjustable for different height people, and the different pockets made it easy to find and store things. I particularly liked and used the handy rain cover. I never ran out of room and could have easily carried more junk...

This pack is a screaming deal, which makes it even better.
