Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"The ingenious Granite Gear Nimbus Latitude Ki Women's Backpack features a panel access system that opens your pack from the top or bottom. Be able to quickly find your headlamp as the sun is setting, and do it without having to unpack everything. Internal compression straps keep your gear stable, and the stretchy zip panel lets you stuff the Nimbus to the brim. A removable, internal lid gives you a place to store smaller items or dirty socks. Side stretch pockets give you room for water bottles, snacks, jackets, and other gear you want close at hand. Granite Gear made this backpack lightweight but not so light that it's just a bag with straps. The Latitude Ki's adjustable shoulder-strap attachment gives you a fine-tuned fit and allows you to carry up to 50 pounds comfortably."

"As with every other Granite Gear pack we have used, my wife raves about how comfortable this pack is. The load carries so well and the regular torso fits her perfectly. (she is 5'7"). We always take the rough road and these packs just hold up to any natural beating you want to put them through."

"I came to this pack basically because none of the others I tried on fit me or were remotely comfortable. I had spent about three hours in various stores with various packfitters and nothing really adapted well to my body -- until I was at an outdoor show that had a Granite Gear rep."

"I am not obsessed by the "lightweight" backpacking frenzy, however, this craze has created an awareness for a balance of comfort with thoughtful packing. The decision between using my die-hard Dana Design Terraplane-X, a comfortable 8 plus pounder, bomb-proof pack with lots of room for over packing or get a new pack."
