Traded in an '01 Shasta that I had used on the Georgia section of the AT for 8 days (great pack, just too big for my needs) for the '01 Palisade. Superb pack, just the right number of features for organization and quantity of gear. Pack performed excellent for 5 days in the Olympics on its first run. Also, unhooked and used the lid/fanny for a day hike up to Hoh Lake ridge with a 32oz Nalgene, PreCip, Sombrero, Fleece, Food, Camera, First Aid and other assorted goodies inside. The lid also makes a great pillow when stuffed with clothes and wrapped in a fleece sweater.

This pack is a winner.
