Wilderness Guide Approved I used this pack all summer for leading hiking trips with small groups. It easily held enough gear and food for our day hikes and was comfortable enough to be used every day without getting pack sores. I'm glad I took the time to find a good pack. I can't wait to take this thing into the mountains.

Very well made. I've used this several times. The fit is great, very comfortable, good fittings. The bag compartment for the water bag is well done. No drawbacks yet.

Very nice pack for long dayhikes or short backpacks. Extremely comfortable. I've worn it about 20 times now. Can handle decent load, easily 25 pounds. Seems to be durable. Very versatile. Buckles are unique but seem to work great. Can hardly feel the shoulder straps, even with weight. Hope I don't ever have to use the whistle in the sternum strap, but it's there if needed. Lots of straps. I like this pack.
