From Altrec Outdoors:
"Designed specifically for a woman s proportions, the Gregory Electra Backpack for women features a narrow profile and a customizing Flo-Form II women s shoulder harness and waist belt. Ideal for multi-day trips with a load in excess of 40 lbs, the suspension utilizes an Auto-Cam shoulder harness that rotates to mirror your shoulder and neck width. The Electra Backpack also features the Adjust-A-Cant waistbelt system that can be fixed at three different angles to match your hip-to-waist ratio and provide optimum weight distribution. The shoulder harness and waistbelt use a foam molding technology, with progressively denser foam layers, that add durability and give premium-cushioned comfort. A top loader with bottom zip access, additional convenience features include two cylinder front pockets, canted water bottle holder, mesh side pocket and hydration sleeve with port."

From REI:
"January Clearance On now! An expedition workhorse developed for women, this full-featured pack with proven suspension from Gregory provides comfort for the long haul. Combination top-/side-loading design pack features a separate sleeping bag compartment with a detachable divider for complete access. Twin half-moon side zippered openings with tensioned elastic allow sideways access. Partial framesheet combined with two new lighter stays in a V-shape provide an optimal blend of stiffness, torsional flex and head clearance. Women-specific Flo-Form II harness is a thermo-molded laminate of foam and fabric built to prevent bunching and chafing. Fitting a wide range of shoulders, foam-padded, contoured shoulder straps with Auto-Cant system adjust automatically to varying trail conditions. Dual-density, padded Adjust-A-Cant waistbelt's three angle settings create a custom fit, while belt stiffener transfers pack weight to hips. Chimney-style mesh back panel increases ventilation and wicks moisture away for increased comfort on the trail. Two vertical front pockets, side mesh pocket and canted side water-bottle pocket for easy access keep essentials close at hand. Top lid pocket converts to a waist pack for short trips away from base camp. U-shape, urethane-zipper pocket on top is water resistant, keeping pocket dry for storage of electronics such as GPS unit, two-way radio or headlamp. New this year--giving the lid a better fit to the pack--top pocket features a split skirt, allowing lid to form over pack. Includes dual ice axe/tool loops, two daisy chains and lash tabs for strapping on extra gear. V-pull side compression straps with easy access buckles and sleeping pad straps stabilize and control the load. Hydration sleeve with an exit port holds a reservoir (sold separately) for hands-free hydration on the trail."

Women's Electra
Reviewed by Donna, Sep 04, 2007

"Have had the pack for two years and love it! I am short with a small frame and the Gregory fits to a 't'. Researched many brands and styles before settling on this particular pack. The pack is durable and is made for ease of operation.

It is narrow enough on the sides."
