From Backcountry.com:
"The Arc'teryx RT25 has a unique weatherproof roll top. The advantage of the RT closure is that it creates a flat surface to carry a rope. Just cinch it down with the adjustable, removable rope carrier straps, and you've got a tight little system that makes transporting gear from your car to the crag a snap. The roll top also eliminates bulk so your head isn't smacking the top of your pack. Other key features of this alpine assault pack include adjustable, removable ice axe loops, a watertight kangaroo pocket with a key clip inside, and two external daisy chains. If that isn't enough the RT25 has a hydration sleeve so you stay juiced. *Available for US shipment only."

"I am a track and field coach and was looking for a pack to keep my gear and extra clothes dry during those nasty-weather-track-meets. Not only has it kept everything dry, but its low profile, when packed light, does not get in my way when coaching my athletes."

"I bought this pack in 2001 for my first trip to Panama. We were going to be working in extremely wet and rainy conditions, and I wanted to have my electronics protected. I did great even when it sat in mud. In 2003, while working in the rainforests in Nicaragua, our canoe flipped coming down some rapids."

"This pack has been great for my purposes. Kept my gear safe in the rain as I use it for climbing, and the size is perfect for a day's worth of stuff. I have also climbed with it as it has a slim profile and great fit."

"All in all this is a good pack. . . close to great. I'm not exactly sure exactly what the rolltop does for you since the fabric is not waterproof and the seams not sealed. The coating on the high wear portions is peeling off, especially along the rolltop folds."

"I've only had this pack for a couple of months but I am really impressed with it. This is the smallest of the packs in the new Roll Top line from Arc'Teryx. Very well made overall. Nice suspension provided by a plastic framesheet along with a 6061 aluminum stay and a nice thermomolded backpad."
