I almost feel guilty writing this review. Judging by the few previous reviews, everyone liked this pack except me. I spent a 2.5 week expedition (+others) and there wasn't enough room. I bought extra side pockets and such, but the straps seemed endless and very VERY confusing. This made cinching the pack extremely difficult. I would suggest a pack with more division and not so much of a big empty void.

The pack also restricted head movement. It held up well, however, and the quality/duribility are definately not in question.
