"I couldn't ask for a better pack. It has the right combination of pockets, incredible suspension, low weight (5 lbs. 8 oz. ) and since I found it for less than $200, you can't find a better pack for the money. Handled 40 lbs well, I'm sure it could handle more."

"This is truly a wonderful pack for up to 50lbs. It rides like a dream. When overloading plan for shorter daily distances because the straps and belt aren't heavy enough to prevent sagging. If I "had" to shop again for a new pack I would not hesitate to order another Glacier."

"This is one hell of a pack. It does almost everything perfect. I looked at and tried a lot of packs before finding a deal on this one. I know Arcteryx, Gregory and Osprey make nice packs too, but I have to believe Dana tops them all. There are quite a few reasons why I like this model even better than the Terraplane."

"This is the most comfortable pack I have ever carried. I carried about 45 pounds in my pack on a 10-day trip to northern New Mexico and I am very pleased with the pack. The hip belt is supremely comfortable and the bag is perfectly sized to fit clothes and other junk in the two pockets, easily accessible stuff in the top pocket, and heavy cooking stuff on the inside."

"I've owned the Glacier for four years and have found it excellent for loads of up to 40 pounds. As pack weight approaches 50 pounds, the Glacier rapidly becomes uncomfortable. I'm sure for those loads a Terraplane would be good to have.

The Glacier is very comfortable, offering enough adjustments to keep you happy on the trail."
