I purchased the Shasta '01 (newer lighter version) for our May 2002 Georgia AT Section hike. The pack performed admirably, never having any problems. All around great pack for the price. The only issue was that I bought a pack too large for my needs. Traded it in for a Gregory Palisade which is about 400 Cu In smaller and has an extra pocket. The Shasta is a great value, performs well, and has the legendary Gregory warranty and quality behing it. Recommended.
