Before the Shasta I had a Macpac Glissade and I am very pleased by the difference. Gregory states that the Shasta is designed to carry up to 35 kg and they are right. I put 32 kg on it and the pack still felt great. I personally think, that backpacks bigger than the Shasta are meant for Schwarzeneggers and the like. There is only so much weight a normal person can carry and that fits perfectly in the Shasta. I put 2 weeks of food and the whole camping gear plus winter cloths in the pack and didn't have a problem.

I will surely buy this pack again, when it eventually wears out--not too soon I hope.
