From Altrec Outdoors:
"Traveling light and fast requires a pack that is lightweight, durable and as tough as you are; the GoLite Ion Backpack is just this pack. Waterproof zippers, space mesh shoulder straps and a 3 liter hydration compatible sleeve make the Ion ideal for day hiking, peak bagging, or the ultra-lite overnight adventure."

From CampSaver.com:
"The epitome of ultra-lite simplicity, the GoLite Ion was designed for ultra-lite fast-packing, summit bids, and adventure travel.Constructed of super durable Dyneema gridstop fabric and a single watertight zipper at the opening, this top-loader features"

From Backcountry Outlet:
"At a scant weight of only 9 ounces, the GoLite Women's Ion Pack gets the job done for fast packers who want "a sack with a lid." Well, this GoLite backpack doesn't even have a lid, just a zipper on top of the light-but-tough Dyneema gridstop main compartment. The Ion Pack holds enough gear for a day hike or ridiculously light overnight trip, and the foam back-panel supports the load. Space mesh shoulder straps and a one-inch waist belt help you carry your gear and still allow for excellent breathability."

"I purchased this pack to substitute for a much heavier, much more complicated day pack and as a summit bag.

This pack is nearly perfect if you are looking for a comfortable, lightweight, and simple pack. It holds roughly 1,800 cubic inches in one pocket - no side pockets for small items - but it holds a lot of gear for a pack that looks so small."
