Summary

Great day pack. It looks awesome, and has everything you want in a daypack.

Light
Adjustable hip/chest straps
Lots of room

Internal pocket for Camelbak
Sturdy/comfy back of pack

Cons

A little pricey
Hip belt runs big

Awesome pack. I use it for single day hiking trips, as well as carrying my stuff around campus.

It has a fit similar to all the other Black Diamond gear. S/M/L. It is very comfy and each shoulder strap is linked through the base so they adjust while you hike. Awesome feature.

It is very roomy with a large main compartment, pouch for a Camelbak, small zip pocket for valuables, and an outside flap for stuffing a jacket. I have not held more that 20 lbs in this pack, but all of the hikes I have gone on have been great and it distributes weight well.

I highly recommend it if it is in your price range. Plus all Black Diamond gear has a lifetime warranty.
