I am amazed at this lightweight yet very strong pack!
I am learning to go lightweight and this helps a lot to cut weight. I have packed it now ready for a three days hike up in high alpine. I have 21 lb now before I add water and food. I have enough space so I can even take fishing gear with me.

Design is excellent with no extra frills that you most likely won't use anyway. It sits very comfortably on my back. I am 5'9".

I will soon go out and test it in the mountains, so I will update this review later.
