Osprey Packs: Argon 85 Backpack - 3 Reviews

Bart Johnson - 2009-02-04
Great Pack Just got back from Aconcagua and the pack preformed really well. Most comfortable pack I have used. Trained with up to 65 pounds in it. No sore spots. Used the lid top fanny pack on the 18 hike out and it was just as comforable as the pack. Only wish the side pouch for a water bottle was a little larger. The Camelback .75 liter bottle fit in there fine.

Wow I have been holding off from writing this review until I actually got to use this pack. I went to Rocky Mountain National Park over Spring Break to hike and camp in the backcountry. This pack was amazing! I bought a knock-off brand several years ago. It never took long for my old pack to become uncomfortable. And after any hike, I was always sore. This wasn't the case with the Osprey. The molded hip belt and the suspension system made for the most comfortable hike I have ever had. This pack is worth every penny. I loved this pack and I am an Osprey fan for life!
