I have to say, thank you REI for having your 50 percent off already on sale items...Ordered a small because that's all that was left in stock.

Brought it home and was thrilled with the amount of adjustment available in the suspension. Shoulder straps cold be moved about 3 inches in total for a perfect fit and some minor hip belt adjustments.

Everyone has pretty much said all the great things about it, so I'll comment on 1 thing no one has said, the hydration system. I love it because the holder for your reservior can fold up to about 2 inches wide to get it out of the way like it's not even there or you can unravel it to add a bladder if you want.

Overall even if you can't get this for a steal, well worth every penny of retail price. After you get it you'll know you'll have it for plenty of years.
